Former UA point guard Mustafa Shakur, who is 30 now, last week signed to play for Neptunas Klaipeda of Lithuania, a Euroleague team. Since leaving Arizona in 2007, Shakur’s pro basketball career has been a wild ride. He has played in Poland, Spain, Greece, France, Italy and Lebanon, and for Tulsa, Rio Grande Valley and Erie in the NBA D-League. His NBA career consists of 22 games for the Washington Wizards and three games for the Oklahoma City Thunder.
