Joining Zalgiris Kaunas once the season had already started in 2024-25, he left Lithuania before the end of it, averaging 13.6 points per game in the EuroLeague.

Maccabi Tel Aviv, which is set to play outside of Israel in the EuroLeague just like the newcomers Hapoel Tel Aviv, is trying to give Oded Kattash a competitive roster. Before Lonnie Walker IV, the yellow-and-blue powerhouse has already added Marcio Santos, Oshae Brissett, and T.J. Leaf.

Moreover, they have also been able to extend Jaylen Hoard, who has demonstrated to be one of the most exciting frontcourt players to watch in the whole EuroLeague.
