The former Clippers wing star is expected to move to Türkiye. Is it difficult for him to get a contract in the NBA?

According to European basketball journalist Andrea Calzoni, Turkish League giant Fenerbahce has provided a contract offer to former NBA player Brandon Boston Jr., who was previously in full free agent form, and the two sides have also started negotiations. Calzoni also added: As far as I know, the two sides are not close to reaching an agreement yet. However, Boston Jr. has appeared on Fenerbahce's shortlist for signings. Boston was born in November 2001 and is 23 years old, 198cm tall and weighs 85kg. He is the wing player selected by the Los Angeles Clippers in the 2021 NBA Draft in the 51st pick in the second round. In addition to the Clippers, Boston also played for the New Orleans Pelicans. In the NBA regular season, Boston made 147 appearances, averaging 16 minutes of playing time, averaging 7.5 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 0.8 turnovers and 1.2 fouls. He shot 41.2%, three-point shooting percentage 32.8%, and free throw shooting percentage 78.1%. Boston's performance in the NBA is not without highlights. He has also shown certain scoring ability, and he can provide certain support and help to the team on the offensive end.

Boston left the Clippers last season to represent the San Antonio Spurs, but he received a two-way contract from the Pelicans before the start of last season's NBA regular season. In the NBA regular season, Boston played 42 games in total, with averaging 23.6 minutes per game, averaging 10.7 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1.2 turnovers and 1.7 fouls. He shot 43.6%, three-point shooting percentage 35%, and free throw shooting percentage 78.8%. Boston's performance last season actually had certain highlights, and he was able to assume certain responsibilities on the offensive end. However, it seems that the Pelicans are not very satisfied with his performance. They have previously refused to execute Boston's team options for the new season, which has also made him a complete free agent after the free market was opened.

There was also news that the Greek league powerhouse Olympiacos is also interested in Boston, and they are also considering the possibility of signing him. From Boston's perspective, the NBA free market has been in operation for more than a month, and Boston has not yet received a contract from an NBA team. Considering that he is no longer qualified to sign with the NBA team on a two-way contract, this further makes it difficult for him to continue to stay in the NBA arena. Perhaps it is also a good choice for Boston to switch to the European arena and build up enough self-confidence, which will also help him build more self-confidence?
