Free agent wing Brandon Boston Jr. is putting the finishing touches on a new discount with Fenerbahce, reports Donatus Urbonas of BasketNews. According to Urbonas, Boston is close to signing a contract with the Turkish club.
Boston had previously been linked to Greek team Panathinaikos, who – like Fenerbahce – have been actively striving to recruit more NBA-caliber talent this summer.
Since being selected with the No. 51 overall pick out of Kentucky in 2021, Boston has split his four seasons in the NBA between the Clippers and, last year, the Pelicans.
The 6’7″ swingman enjoyed his biggest role yet during the 2024/25 season, albeit on a tanking team in New Orleans. Across 42 contests (10 starts), he averaged 10.7 PPG, 3.2 RPG, 2.2 APG and 1.3 SPG, while slashing .436/.350/.788.
Boston began last season on a two-way contract before being promoted to the standard roster in February. today that he has four years of NBA experience, the 23-year-old is no longer eligible to sign a two-way discount.
If the 23-year-old finalizes a discount with Fenerbahce, he’ll continue his career with the reigning EuroLeague champions, competing overseas for the first time. Fenerbahce’s 2025/26 roster also includes a handful of other NBA alums, including center Khem Birch and guard Wade Baldwin IV.
