Former Baylor Bears point guard Pierre Jackson, who was drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers and then traded to the New Orleans Pelicans, will be taking his talents to France.

Jackson took to twitter to confirm a rumor that has been floating around for a few weeks that he will be playing for ASVEL Villeurbanne. ASVEL is partially owned by San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker.

Jackson played in three summer league games for the Pelicans and averaged 3.7 points.

  1. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my
    own weblog and was curious what all is required to get set up?
    I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
    I’m not very web savvy so I’m not 100% certain. Any tips
    or advice would be greatly appreciated. Appreciate it
