Codi Miller-McIntyre is close to joining Crvena Zvezda, per Donatas Urbonas of “Basket News and his sources.
The Baskonia player has a year left on his contract, but there is a buyout clause in his contract which will make the move possible. The Basque team also reportedly tried to increase his salary, but could not match the red and white’s offer.
Behind the Bulgarian national team member is a great EuroLeague rookie season. He became only the third player to record a triple-double in the elite European competition. Against Asvel, he had 11 points, 11 rebounds and 20 assists, which is most in a single game. He averaged 9.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 7.3 assists, pushing Baskonia to an unexpected EuroLeague play-off run.
Codi Miller-McIntyre also only needed three assists to break Nick Calathes’ single season record (286). In Liga Endesa he posted 10.4 points, 3.1 rebounds and 5.9 assist per game. He also played for Partizan, Gazientep, Andorra, Cedevita Olimpija, Zenit, Bourg and others. He started his career at the Wake Forest University. This season came only a year after he considered retirement.
