Arturas Karnisovas was the great Lithuanian player of Barcelona and Olympiacos. Whom this month is the new international scout for the Houston Rockets. He is a good connoisseur of international basketball and considering the point position problems of the Rockets, has, contacted the agent of Pablo Prigioni, Claudius Villanueva, to see about the possibility of adding the Cordovan.

Prigioni is in his last year of his contract with the Tau Ceramica, but does not have an exit clause. Getting past this exit clause reason is necessary to initiate a negotiation that has yet to occur. It was clear that the situation was complicated. As frustrating as it was, the management of Houston demonstrated that Prigioni is valuable through the best moments of the upcoming season and it's playoff race. If Tau does does not extend his contract during the 2008/09, his chance to join the NBA could occur.
