In late January, CSKA Moscow announced the signing of former NBA player Will Barton. However, the US swingman will not be playing for the Russian side. As officially announced, the contract between the two sides has been terminated, and Barton has returned to the United States. “The club continues to work on finding a newcomer for the shooting guard-small forward position,” as stated by the Russian club. Artem Komarov reported that the reason behind Barton not joining CSKA Moscow lies in the fact that he didn’t pass the medical tests, but the club didn’t specify. “The contract with Will Barton has been terminated based on one of the specified conditions,” CSKA stated. -via EuroHoops.net / February 21, 2024
