Former Los Angeles Lakers guard Shake Milton reportedly joins Euroleague as Marcus Smart fills backcourt role.

Marcus Smart, the NBA's defensive player of the year in 2022, says is "means a lot" to be recruited to join Luka Doncic and LeBron James.

He opened up about how Luka Doncic, the new superstar face of the Los Angeles franchise, played a huge part. "When you get a guy like Luka calling, to see if you want to join something special that he's trying to cook up over here, that meant a lot," Smart said.
