Dario Saric Reportedly Nearing a EuroLeague Return After a Decade in the NBA
Croatian forward Dario Saric is reportedly on the verge of returning to EuroLeague basketball 10 years after leaving Europe for the NBA. His agent, Miško Ražnatović, hinted on Monday that Saric may be headed back to Turkey, and BasketNews said the likely destination is his former club Anadolu Efes.
Ražnatović wrote on social media, “Turkish Airlines is the only airline that allows passengers to use their return ticket with a 10-year delay exactly.” BasketNews said the remark referred to Saric’s expected comeback to Anadolu Efes, where he played two seasons before beginning a decade-long NBA career.
Saric is 32 and 2.08 meters tall. During his NBA stint he played for seven teams, with his best season coming in 2017/18 at Philadelphia, when he averaged 14.6 points and 6.7 rebounds.
In his last EuroLeague season, 2015/16, Saric averaged 11.7 points and 5.8 rebounds. In the past two NBA seasons he played sparingly, and he was waived during the current season, setting up a possible return to Europe and the EuroLeague.
