Despite rumors speculating upon various figures, its unclear what the amount to buy Llull out from his contract in Madrid entails. Since then, the 6'4 guard has established himself as one of the best non-NBA players in the world, winning the MVP of the EuroLeague during the 2016-2017 season. Good news, Rockets fans — Sergio Llull is looking sharp.

The Denver Nuggets took Llull with the 34th pick, then sent him to Houston for $2.25 million, a record price for a second round pick. He's also resisted all of the Rockets' attempts to bring him over to the United States, even signing a six-year contract extension in the summer of 2015.
