Khimki Moscow Region is very close to a deal with former Miami Heat player Jordan Mickey, according to Eurohoops sources from the USA.
The 24-year-old is a highly athletic big man for European standards. He is very versatile, he can make the difference in the defense and he can also be an asset in the offense as a mobile isolation player and pick and roll finisher.
Mickey is expected to replace Thomas Robinson in the team’s roster.
The 24 years old Mickey was the 33rd pick of the 2016 draft and after two seasons in Boston, he played for the Miami Heat last year, averaging four points in 23 games.
