Dario Saric's NBA debut could come sooner than expected.
One day after telling reporters he plans to spend two more years in Europe, the Croatian forward said there's a possibility he could come to the NBA in 2015.
"I think we can talk about that with Turkey team after the next season," Saric said Thursday. "If a chance to be, I will come here to 76ers of Philadelphia."
Saric was drafted 12th overall by the Orlando Magic, who then traded him to the Sixers in exchange for the rights to guard Elfrid Payton and a pair of future picks.
Despite signing a three-year deal with Anadolu Efes of the Turkish Basketball League, Saric insists he has every intention of playing for the Sixers.
"I am not a liar. I told them I would be back," Saric said, via Eliot Shorr-Parks of NJ.com. "I will play in Philadelphia."
