Making adjustments to respective squads was the case for a couple of 7DAYS EuroCup teams on Monday.
Jeremy Evans, the 2012 NBA Slam Dunk Contest champion, signed with Paris. The French team was looking for injury relief after sidelined power forward Aamir Simms and inked Evans to a short-term contract lasting until November 15, as announced.
Evans, 34, will shift to EuroCup after logging 91 games played in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague between Panathinaikos OPAP, AX Armani Exchange Milan, Khimki Moscow Region, and Darussafaka Tekfen over the last four seasons. The experienced forward/center, a product of Western Kentucky, made his way to two EuroCup games of the 2016-17 season during his first stint at Khimki. Also, he has played in 252 NBA games, including 221 as a member of the Utah Jazz before briefer spells at the Dallas Mavericks and Atlanta Hawks.
Also coming out of the pool of free agents, Nemanja Dangubic became a new player of Promitheas, his agent announced. The Serbian small forward is a veteran of 114 EuroLeague games and the last two seasons was featured in 28 EuroCup games for Partizan NIS. In 2014, he was selected by the Philadelphia 76rs with the 54th pick of the NBA draft but did not make the jump to the league based in North America, while his NBA rights moved to the San Antonio Spurs and most recently to the Brooklyn Nets.
Both Paris and Promitheas currently sit at 1-0 in Group B of the EuroCup Regular Season.
