    NBA star Deron Williams has agreed terms with Turkish club Besiktas in principle.



    Williams will sign a contract with Besiktas that will allow him to return to NBA as soon as the lockout ends. Nevertheless it is the greatest summer transfer by a European club, so far.

    Williams who was traded to New Jersey Nets earlier this season after a fall out with the former team coach Jerry Sloan would be receiving $16.000.000 this year, but obviously doesn't want to stay inactive during the lockout.

    The 27 year old will reportedly receive $200.000 per month.

    Club's coach Ergin Ataman has confirmed the move and stated that the club is also very close to Zaza Pachulia, as well.
