Nando de Colo: Planning NBA return
De Colo is planning a return to the NBA, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
De Colo, who played two seasons in the NBA from 2012 to 2014 with the Spurs and the Raptors, is regarded as one of the best guards in the EuroLeague. The 32-year-old played with CSKA Moscow last season, averaging 14.7 points and 3.4 assists while hitting almost 45 percent of his threes. Over the past five years with CSKA Moscow, the team has won the EuroLeague championship twice and de Colo was voted to the All-EuroLeague first team three times. The Raptors still hold de Colo's rights, so Toronto could extend a qualifying offer to him.

Nando De Colo: Becomes restricted free agent
De Colo received a qualifying offer from the Raptors prior to the start of free agency.
The qualifying offer makes De Colo a restricted free agent, allowing the Raptors to match any offer sheet he might choose to sign with another team. That's not expected to be an issue, however, as the guard has already committed to re-signing with CSKA Moscow of Russia for the next three seasons. His deal with CSKA likely includes some kind of opt-out clause for him to join the NBA down the line, and the Raptors would retain his rights in such a scenario.

Nando De Colo: Signs three-year extension with Russian club
De Colo signed a three-year contract extension Wednesday with Russian club CSKA Moscow, EuroHoops.net reports.
De Colo was a standout for the Euroleague champs this past season, finishing as the team's top scorer and earning Final Four MVP honors. The guard's success aboard spurred some belief that he might return to the NBA, where he played for the Spurs and Raptors from 2012 through 2014, but he'll instead reaffirm his commitment to CSKA. De Colo is still just 28 years old, and while the door isn't completely closed on him returning to the NBA, his new contract suggests he's not overly interested in heading back to North America.
