When Valencia Basket acquired Luka Bozic to reinforce Pedro Martinez’s team, it was likely expected he would have gained experience in the BKT EuroCup after demonstrating his value in the ABA League.
Instead, as announced by the orange-colored Spanish club, the Croatian forward will help Força Lleida, newly promoted to the ACB, avoid relegation. After all, we’re talking about a two-time consecutive ABA League MVP.
In the 2023-24 season, he put up 19.8 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 6.3 assists per game, collecting two triple-doubles throughout the whole campaign.
Originally, Luka Bozic signed a two-year contract with Valencia. It’s likely that he will come back to the team after fully completing the next season with Força Lleida, maybe once the EuroCup side gains a comeback to the EuroLeague.
