Satoransky has some talent and considerable athleticism, but the Wizards still intend to stick to their plan of stashing the second-round pick in Europe next season, according to a league source with knowledge of the team’s thinking. Satoransky would have needed a spectacular performance to change the original plan. In five summer league games, the 6-foot-7 Satoransky didn’t overwhelm anyone. He averaged just 4.4 points and 1.8 assists and shot just 37.5 percent (6 of 16) from the floor while backing up Shelvin Mack. Washington Post

“He can stay there and he’s playing in the best league in Europe,” said Grunfeld. “We’re hoping he can develop with the proper coaching he’s getting over there and the proper minutes.” Washington Post

Wizards President Ernie Grunfeld said in all likelihood Satoransky would remain in Europe to develop his game and ideally join Washington in a few years. “This is a very good prospect we’re talking about,” Grunfeld said. “A prospect for down the road, and he’s playing in the highest league in Europe, and we hope he develops and plays instead of just sitting on the bench and not getting any playing time.” Washington Post

Tomas Satoransky, the shooting guard from the Czech Republic likely headed for the second round, has an option, but no buyout, to get out of the contract with his Spanish team this summer. But if returns to what most rate as the second-best league in the world, it’s with a contract for two seasons and a buyout after 2012-13. “I would like to play in the NBA next year, but I wouldn’t be against the option to stay one more year in Europe,” he said. “I think the basketball there is at a pretty good level, especially if you are on a team that plays Euroleague. I think it makes you stronger.” NBA.com

Adrian Wojnarowski: Czech 6-7 point guard Tomas Satoransky will remain in the 2012 NBA Draft, source tells Y! Sports. He's moved up charts into early 2nd range. Twitter

So the only players we're really looking at are the international players who are younger than 22 years old. This year 17 international players declared early for the 2012 NBA draft. As of Sunday night, only one international player, Turkey's Furkan Aldemir, was confirmed to be staying in the draft. Aldemir is a likely second-round selection. Sources say that France's Evan Fournier is also very likely to stay in the draft, as well. Fournier is projected to be a mid to late first-round pick. A few others including Tomas Satoransky, Josep Franch and Tornike Shengelia might also stay. However, at this point, they don't look like they have a serious shot at the first round. ESPN.com

The Warriors have four picks (Nos. 7, 30, 35 and 52) and have been open about not wanting to add four rookies to a roster that will include at least three second-year players. Satoransky could prove to be a perfect draft-and-stash option for the Warriors, who could use one of their second-round picks on him and continue his development overseas for a year or two.
