While several EuroLeague players have already reached contract agreements for next season (and beyond), there are still some top players on the open market, writes Stefan Acevski of Eurohoops.
Longtime NBA power forward Trey Lyles, who starred for Real Madrid last season, is the top-ranked player on Acevski’s list, which also features recent NBA veterans like Daniel Theis (AS Monaco), Cory Joseph (Olympiacos) and Braxton Key (Valencia).
Here are a few more notes from overseas:
- French wing Evan Fournier recently helped Olympiacos win both the EuroLeague Final four and the Greek league finals, winning MVP on both occasions, per Mike Gkioulenoglou of Eurohoops. Fournier, a 12-year NBA veteran who last played for Detroit in 2023/24, talked about the incredible fan support he’s received since he joined Olympiacos, his fluctuating role throughout the season, and a desire to see the playoffs occur in a different order in the future. “Panathinaikos is a really good team. They play extremely hard, but to be honest, Europe has to think of a better way to end the season,” Fournier said. “To go from the EuroLeague to domestic Finals is very hard. You kind of check out, win or lose. And especially us, I think we have the hardest Finals in Europe, so you go from winning to jumping into another war. I wish we could have ended the season with the EuroLeague and not the Greek Finals.”
- Veteran guard Yogi Ferrell has officially re-signed with Buducnost in Montenegro, relays Johnny Askounis of Eurohoops. The 33-year-old, who played five seasons in the NBA, had a strong season during both EuroCup and ABA League action in 2025/26.
- Partizan has parted ways with Duane Washington, who had spent the past two years with the Serbian club (Twitter link via the team). A 26-year-old guard who played two years in the NBA, Washington led the ABA League in points per game this season and put up solid numbers in the EuroLeague (14.9 points on .450/.377/.800 shooting splits in 21.9 minutes per game) as well.
