With Los Blancos over the last three years, the Bosnian guard/forward celebrated a Turkish Airlines EuroLeague title to become a two-time champion in 2023. In addition, he was crowned ACB champion in 2024 and 2025, including being named Most Valuable Player of the Liga Endesa Finals 2024. He also won the Copa del Rey in 2024, besides Supercopa Endesa triumphs in 2022 and 2023.
His last season with the team based in Spanish capital went from 12.2 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 0.4 steals, and 0.1 blocks per contest over 35 appearances, including 23 starts, in the EuroLeague, to 12.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.7 steals, and 0.2 blocks per game over 36 appearances in Spain’s Liga Endesa.
Earlier in his career, Musa recorded 54 appearances in the NBA with the Brooklyn Nets. After coming out of Cedevita and being drafted by the franchise in 2018, with the 28th overall pick, he spent the next two years in the league based in North America, before returning to Europe.
In his first stop, he was part of an EuroLeague championship campaign in a limited role with Anadolu Efes over the bottom end of the 2020-21 journey. In 2021-22, with Rio Breogan and building a path to Madrid, a brilliant campaign was headlined by getting the ACB MVP nod.
