Ford on Gallinari rumors

According to sources from two teams, Gallinari’s American agent, Arn Tellem, is telling teams that if he doesn’t have a guarantee by Monday from a team drafting in the top 10, he’ll withdraw.

 
Tellem denied the rumors on Sunday evening, telling ESPN.com via text message that Gallinari is "staying in the draft."
 
Does this mean Gallinari has received a promise from a team?
 
…There are rumblings that the Timberwolves got a look, too. But I think
the No. 3 pick is too high for Gallinari to get a guarantee. Plus,
Minnesota is talking with a number of teams about trades right now.
