Omer Yurtseven is likely to return to Europe for the next season to continue his career. He has reached an agreement in principle with Panathinaikos in Greece. The deal will only be finalized once Yurtseven ensures he does not have any NBA offers for next season.
The 6-foot-11 center played for the Utah Jazz last season, averaging 4.6 points and 4.3 rebounds in 11.4 minutes per game.
Although Yurtseven recently met with the New York Knicks, no contract agreement was reached. He is now seriously considering the offer to join Panathinaikos.
