A few NBA teams have reportedly reached out to Iranian basketball prospect Hamed Ehdadi to discuss a possible transfer to the United States. But, current federal law prohibits the teams from negotiating with Ehdadi:
In the letter, which was sent Friday, NBA legal counsel wrote: “It has come to our attention that representatives of Hamed Ehadadi, an Iranian basketball player, may be contacting NBA teams to discuss the possibility of signing Mr. Ehadadi to an NBA player contract.
“We have been advised that a federal statue prohibits a person or organization in the United States from engaging in business dealings with Iranian nationals.”
