Return to Europe for Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot. According to Sportando, the Frenchman is about to join Italian club Olimpia Milan. The information falls a month after the winger tried, in vain, to clinch the last place in the Suns workforce.
This return to Europe for the 27-year-old native of Cannes puts an end to a six-year experience in the Great League for the moment. Drafted 24th by Philadelphia in 2016, he first found his place in the 76ers rotation for two seasons.
He then moved around a lot, from the Thunder to the Bulls before landing at the Nets, with whom the player of the France team averaged 7 points for two seasons. Last season, he played with the Hawks with a playing time limit of 13 minutes per game. In more than 300 NBA games, this specialist in defensive tasks has averaged 6 points with only 39% success, including 33.5% from afar.
We recall that before being drafted, he had honed his skills for three years in Antibes before joining the Serbian club Mega Leks, with which he was chosen in the best five of the 2015/16 regular season in the Adriatic League .
Coached by Ettore Messina, his new team, EA7 Emporio Armani Milan, is currently 12th in the EuroLeague but occupies the top three in the Italian championship.
