Good news on the play and status of Oleksiy Pecherov posted on www.cnnsi.com:
"Here's an update on Wizards 2006 first-round draft pick Oleksiy Pecherov, a 7-footer who had some fine moments in summer league play before Washington decided to let him stay and develop in Europe another year. In his most recent game in the Superleague for first-place BC Kyiv (13-1) of Ukraine, Pecherov recorded 10 points and 10 rebounds in just 17 minutes. The Wizards hoped Pecherov would play a lot this season, but BC Kyiv's head coach often played Pecherov only sparingly before being replaced in mid-December. Pecherov has delivered big games whenever he receives quality minutes, and Washington is sure to consider bringing the Ukrainian big man aboard next season."
