Jordan Loyd is on the verge of signing with Anadolu Efes, according to Marc Stein.
The American guard, who shined at EuroBasket with the Polish national team as a naturalized player, had also been a target for Real Madrid.
However, the Spanish club reportedly faced too many hurdles to secure his transfer from AS Monaco, with Valencia holding Loyd’s tanteo rights, which complicated the situation.
Efes, meanwhile, are moving quickly and appear close to adding Loyd to a roster recently reinforced with the likes of Cole Swider and Kai Jones.
The former Valencia, Crvena zvezda, Zenit, and Maccabi Tel Aviv guard enjoyed a standout EuroBasket campaign, averaging 22.4 points across seven appearances and helping Poland reach the quarterfinals.
