Cimberio Varese is close to signing two important players for the coming season: Yakhouba Diawara and E’Twuan Moore. …

The guard spot in Varese will be filled by E’Twuan Moore. The product of Purdue averaged 18ppg, 5.2rpg and 3.1apg in his senior year with Boilmakers and then was drafted by Boston Celtics with the 55th overall pick. The two parts are finalizing the deal who will be with an NBA escape but just for few days when the lockout ends.

Just yesterday, Moore was quoted about his overseas options.

“I’m not thinking about that right now,” he told the Lafayette Journal and Courier. “I most definitely want to be a Boston Celtic.”
