Ex-NBA players not getting paid in Europe

Spotted this on TrueHoop:

Damon Jones, Robert "Tractor' Traylor and Travis Best are on the verge of leaving their Italian League team, Martos Napoli, because they haven't received their paychecks for the past month, according to several sources with knowledge of the situation.

After returning to the United States for Christmas, the three players have decided not to go back to Italy until they are paid. Representatives for the players are in discussions with Martos Napoli to work up legal documents that will allow the players to leave the squad and become free agents.

In Damon Jones' case, he's been paid for nothing for years in the NBA so isn't this just a case of things evening themselves out?

The article fails to mention that Tractor Traylor ate the team mascot, in clear breach of his contract.
