After his G-League season, Adam Mokoka signs for Venice

As Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot who joined the boot during the season (in Milan at the end of November) without a real option in the NBA, the young 24-year-old tricolor winger, Adam Mokoka, also decided to return to Europe and join Italy, and more precisely Venice , after his G-League season ended with the Oklahoma City Blue, who did not qualify for the playoffs.

Passed by Nanterre last year, Adam Mokoka dreamed of finding a place in the Great League this season, but the muscular winger already passed by the Bulls (25 appearances between 2019 and 2021) did not have the opportunity to show himself , neither at the Thunder nor in any other NBA franchise…

Despite averages set at 13 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 interception in 30 minutes of play at the Blue (where he played with his compatriots Ousmane Dieng and Olivier Sarr), the former best young player in the French championship in 2018 failed to seduce NBA recruiters, probably because of his still questionable address (34% from 3-pointers, and 64% from free throws).

Currently ninth in the Italian championship, Venice especially has a good shot to play in the EuroCup, with a round of 16 looming in mid-April against Hapoel Tel-Aviv of Jaylen Hoard (who has just been elected MVP of the last day with a double-double to 21 points and 10 rebounds elsewhere).
