James Wiseman to Continue His Playing Career in Europe

His agent has begun marketing him to EuroLeague clubs to secure regular minutes in a structured setting aimed at rebuilding his career after recurring major injuries.

Overview

  • On Wednesday agent Misko Raznatovic announced on X that Wiseman will continue his career in Europe and that his representation has begun exploring overseas opportunities.
  • The move is framed as a career reset to find consistent playing time and a structured development environment after a torn right meniscus in his rookie year and a later torn left Achilles stalled his NBA progress.
  • Wiseman is a 25-year-old center who has appeared in about 155 NBA games and used Team USA’s FIBA World Cup 2027 qualifiers to demonstrate his current health and mobility.
  • No contract has been signed yet, though early media reports link Wiseman to clubs such as Maccabi Tel Aviv and Raznatovic’s strong EuroLeague contacts make interest from top teams plausible.
  • A successful European stint could restore Wiseman’s value by giving him steady minutes, regular medical oversight, and a clear development plan that he lacked during his string of short NBA contracts.
