Nets guard Vujacic signs with Turkish club

New Jersey Nets guard Sasha Vujacic has contracted with a Turkish squad for next season.

Anadolu Efes told Friday the 27-year old Slovenian guard checked to a one-year deal with an optional 2nd year. It didn't say whether Vujacic has an choice to return to New Jersey if the NBA lockout is lifted.

Vujacic averaged 11.4 points in 56 games last season for the Nets. He joined the Nets in a three-team deal in December from the Los Angeles Laker. He played there for 6 seasons, winning 2 NBA titles.

With the next NBA season threatened by the lockout, Turkish club Besiktas has previously stated it is close to signing Nets All-Star guard Deron Williams. Nets' draft pick Bojan Bogdanovic signed with Fenerbahce of the Turkish League in June.

Istanbul-based Efes has won 13 national championships.
