As far as McCalebb goes, he is going to have to lower his salary demands or he is not signing anywhere. He still wants 1 million euros net and no team is biting at all. Like I said earlier, I would think 700,000 euros a season is more what he would command.
He had a great season and was All-Euroleague Second Team in his first season, but just one good year does not make you worth what he is asking for. He would have to have at least 2 seasons on that level I think to ask for that kind of money. Maybe I'm wrong and he will get it somewhere, but I doubt it. Who knows, maybe if Partizan gets that huge buyout for Maric, maybe they will sign him if he accepts a more reasonable salary.
Don't look now but the logic that somehow McCalebb isn't worth x euros because he only had one good season. Guess what? The same thing is true about Maric. Unlike Maric though, McCalebb didn't miss a key part of the season like Maric did. I'm not saying I know what is a fair salary for McCalebb I'm just saying it should be the same thing with McCalebb as it is with Maric. Bo was the starting point guard on a Final 4 Euroleague team. PG and center are probably the 2 most important positions on a team.

I won't be surprise, if McCalebb will sign in Maccabi.
