Free agent basketball player Rishon Holmes, who was a target for Maccabi Tel Aviv last summer but ultimately did not sign, is now reportedly being considered by Crvena Zvezda Belgrade. The Serbian club is looking to bolster its roster following a disappointing start to the season. The team has been hampered by injuries, including a recent one to Jonathan Motley, who will be sidelined for several weeks. This leaves coach Ivica Navaro with limited options under the basket, with Iboke Izondo being the only available natural center, though his performance has been subpar. Patrick Baldwin, who can also play center, is also injured and has yet to make his EuroLeague debut. Fans of Crvena Zvezda have expressed interest online in Holmes joining the team. Holmes became a free agent last season after a public dispute with coach Ergin Ataman, and his last game was on March 15, 2026. During that season, he averaged 7.9 points and 4.3 rebounds in the EuroLeague.
