Andrew Bogut Gives $ To Bailout Aussie Pro Team
Andrew Bogut is putting his money where his mouth is to try and save basketball in his hometown of Sydney, Australia. FOX SPORTS AUSTRALIA is reporting that the Bucks center and former No. 1 overall draft pick is sponsoring one of the remaining six home games for the Sydney Spirit as they struggle to make it to the end of the season.
The cost? About $31,000, which might be chump change to a player who just signed a big bucks, multiyear deal in the offseason, but is going to apparently go a long way to help the players get their paychecks - which they’ve already agreed to cut by more than 50 percent in order to make it to the end of the season.
