European Club Competitions 2024/25 - Signing & Rumors
I really like McIntyre and Canaan for Zvezda. When you have Teodosic and Nedovic you need great defender like Codi and Canaan should be alright signing. Kalinic is washed in my eyes but he can help on multiple positions at least in defense so that's ok transfer.
As it seems Hezonja will stay in Real. If that happens and Panathinaikos was interested and offered the same contract then I hope he will get the same "ovations" Papagiannis got.

As you said, Zvezda need two-way PG so bad, players like CMM, Walkup, Grant, even Calathes. And i think CMM is best possible option for Zvezda at point guard position.
Canaan also could be good fit for Zvezda, we need sharpshooter like him also.
About Kalinic, yes his form is not on high level and he didnt have good season but i dont know if u gonna believe me, if someone tell me "you choose one EL player who will sign with Zvezda", i would choose Kalinic without any doubt. He is probably not one of the best players at his position anymore but for Zvezda he is great fit and he will give 110%.
Kalinic-Giedraitis on SF looks good for me.

It's true that Kalinic plays great in Zvezda but he really had bad season. Especially that season before going in Barcelona was great. Like you said, he will give 100% and he is Serbian so it makes sense for Zvezda to sign him. Backcourt of Yago, Teodosic, Nedovic, Codi and Canaan is fine. Wings are...in my opinion meh. Kalinic and Giedratis are border line duo for the PO at SF...Zvezda needs great player at PF. If Bolomboy is backup and Mitrovic 3rd C with new C arriving I would have Zvezda in top 10. Now everything can happen but I think this roster still have holes. I will never understand logic of Greek and Serbian clubs that have huge aspirations in the EL to pay nice salaries to let say Ilic, Lazarevic, Kuzmic, Jaramaz, Trifunovic, Koprivica, Moraitis, Mitrou Long, Lountzis...etc Zvezda as the example can get much much better player if they don't need to spend salaries on players that I have mentioned. Partizan the same thing. At the end, they are non factors in the EL and when it matters at the end in the ABA league they will not play. When I heard Jaramaz has 400k per season I couldn't believe.
PANATHINAIKOS doesnt need many moves. Micic has already with the team and remains to be seen if he can get out of his contract from summer. If not then, i think he will be with us from the new year, making the best euroleague backcourt even better. In case he is not with us from the start of the season, then hezonja and one center like theis would do the job as well.
Hezonja is of course a must, cyclist is just for 5th guard when it matters, papapetrou will be alright as the backup for 15 minutes. With micic and hezonja in, i would not get a center. Mitoglou can be there for 10 minutes, after all lessort proved to be the best center in the league and he can play 25-30 minutes easily. Hezonja-papapetrou-juancho can play in 4 as well so no problem with the PF spot.
Perfect team for a cyclist - BC Astana with their velodrome home court.
So Barca is very close to sign Nunez and there are strong rumours about Trevion Williams. Nunez instead Jokubaitis is an upgrade but not that big. If they really sign Williams that would be very weird. He is very good player but they don't need him. He isn't PF even though he can play there and I really doubt he will be 3rd C, I mean there is no way. So he will probably be replacement for Oscar da Silva. They need to dump all those guards btw...
His contract must be fairly significant and he's signed until 2026.
I just checked his stats - 7 PPG this season.
I need to look up some of these rosters.
What can you want more than the trio of Courtney Forston, Jeremy Chapell and Micah Downs...
And about Astana...I mean, Kenny Hayes, legend of Buyukcekmece with Nik Caner Medley and Pat Calathes? Jerry Johnson also played that season I think and he also went to Buykucekmece later. I remember they had one season Katsivelis and Kaselakis in the roster
I was just reading something about Goudelock and then I have remembered actually the best roster of all time. Dacka is not even close. One team that had Devin Smith, Victor Rudd, Sonny Weems, Quincy Miller, Andrew Goudelock, Maik Zirbes, DJ Seeley, Sylvan Landersberg, Colton Iverson and somehow on the PG Yogev Ohayon with 1 leg and Gal Mekel hahaha...no wonder they were at the bottom of the table. That team is the craziest roster ever. So many egos, iso players, crackheads...
its all up to him, and i think that he still didn't decide should he go for one more season or no... he is currently in home town on vacition.. guess after few days he would decide..
its 50-50 imo

Yes, I remember so many of those Astana signings now. Also, you mention Gaziantep and Buykucekmece so often that I think you must be rivalling Toruko for knowledge of Turkish teams.
That Maccabi roster is truly legendary in retrospect- like a mad basketball experiment gone wrong. They didn't lack scorers anyway.

Thanks for the info. Hopefully he decides to continue.
