Fisher joins 'superstar game' in Philippines
Derek Fisher - G - Los Angeles Lakers
July 19, 2011 - 1:10 AM ET
NBPA president and Lakers PG Derek Fisher will join Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul, Kevin Durant, Derrick Rose, Derrick Williams, Tyreke Evans, and JaVale McGee for a pair of exhibition games on July 23 and 24 in the Philippines.
This could simply be a matter of Fisher and his agent landing him a deal to play, but we find it hard to believe that his role in the labor impasse didn't sweeten his position. It's not beyond the realm of possibility that this group has one audience in mind when they perform in this event -- the owners.
