Another Turkish Airlines EuroLeague season is in the books, and as the domestic leagues are also coming to an end in the coming weeks, the fun begins for the supporters of the competition and it’s none other than the free agency!
Teams will roll up their sleeves to prepare for the new season with more hope and will try to sign the best possible players for their respective teams.
Just like every year, Eurohoops is bringing its readers a series of the Top 10 free agents in every position, starting with the point guards.
Note 1: Players who have an option in their current contracts are not included on the list.
Note 2: The list has been formed in random order.
Note 3: Players who have fleed Russian clubs and signed with non-Euroleague clubs are included.
Paris Lee (AS Monaco)
Age / Country: 27 / USA
EuroLeague Career: 1 season – 36 games
2021-22 EuroLeague Stats: 36 games | 7.2 points, 1.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 7 PIR

Despite being a rookie both in Monaco and EuroLeague, Paris Lee did quite a good job this past season.
The US point guard, who started his European career in Belgium and continued with Brose Bamberg and Orleans, redeemed his good performances by signing with the 2021 EuroCup champions.
Lee, who increased his form, especially in the playoffs, had an important share in Monaco’s effort to force Game 5 in the playoffs series against Olympiacos.
According to Eurohoops sources, Paris Lee is expected to play for Panathinaikos next season, but he is included on our list since there’s no official announcement yet.
