The BKT EuroCup witnessed a flurry of roster activity as three clubs secured impactful talent for the upcoming 2026–27 campaign on Monday.
In the British capital, the London Lions finalized a major coup by landing All-EuroCup First Team point guard DeVante’ Jones from Italian side Dolomiti Energia Trento. The New Orleans native arrives in London after finishing third overall in EuroCup scoring last season, averaging 18.6 points, highlighted by a blistering 60.6% shooting mark inside the arc, alongside 4.5 assists and 3.4 rebounds per contest. His offensive arsenal pairs with a proven winning pedigree built during successful championship stints across Slovenia and France.
Lithuanian outfit Lietkabelis heavily injected interior size into their rotation by inking twin prospects Veljko and Milos Ilic to one-year deals. Standing over two meters tall, the 22-year-old Serbian forwards reunite on European soil at Panevezys after navigating a developmental NCAA pipeline. Their collegiate journey included three injury-disrupted seasons together at Loyola Maryland, before separate stops at California and Sam Houston State, where they established themselves as versatile frontcourt defenders.
Meanwhile, Veolia Towers Hamburg finalized an emotional homecoming by securing forward Emil Marshall on a two-year contract. After six seasons away, sharpening his skill set in the German lower tiers and emerging as a 3×3 standout, the 26-year-old returnee provides crucial domestic depth to his hometown team. His explosive versatility, relentless work ethic, and outside shooting threat add energetic reinforcement to the German rotation, validating the club’s long-term youth academy development concept.
