Guard Rudy Fernandez said Friday that he plans to leave his Spanish ACB League team to join the Portland Trail Blazers. Fernandez made the announcement at a press conference in Spain.

"It has not been easy for me to take this decision, but it is the moment to face new challenges," Fernandez said. (link)
