Shane Larkin: "I will not go back to the NBA as a third point guard"

Larkin would return to the NBA only if a team offered him the chance to shoulder 'true responsibility'

In an interview with The Step Back (FanSided), EuroLeague star Shane Larkin talked about a potential return to the NBA.

Larkin said that he would return to the NBA only if a team offered him the chance to play 18 to 25 minutes and shoulder “true responsibility”.

“I will not go back to the NBA as a third point guard,” Larkin said. “So, if any team asks about that, we’re not even gonna answer the phone.”

Larkin was having an MVP-caliber season with Efes before the EuroLeague season got canceled.
