Eurohoops: Carlik Jones was the main character in South Sudan´s first-ever WIN in the Olympics😤🇸🇸 #Paris2024 pic.twitter.com/6kmUNqGCLz -via Twitter @Eurohoopsnet / July 28, 2024
Carlik Jones agreed on a two-year deal with Partizan two weeks ago for a first European stint of his career. That agreement included an NBA exit, valid until July 26th. Considering that deadline has passed, it is safe to say that Jones will play next season in Belgrade. Carlik ignited NBA teams’ interest after his triple-double performance against Team USA in a friendly against South Sudan, though it did not result in an NBA contract. -via BasketNews / July 26, 2024
