Joining Ioannis Sfairopoulos’ team in Serbia, he will try to contribute once again to the red-and-white powerhouse’s success after that Crvena Zvezda won both the ABA League and the Serbian League against their fiercest rivals, Partizan.
Being selected by the Houston Rockets with the 34th pick in the 2013 NBA Draft, he stayed with the red-and-white side while also spending time in the G-League in the Rio Grande Valley Vipers until 2015. He then also played for Chicago, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Minnesota, and New Orleans.
