Blinked on the Pasvalys “Pienovaigždės” team John Gillon next season in a capable Turkish team.

The defender has reached an agreement with the Daruschafaka team in Istanbul, which will compete in the Turkish championships and the FIBA ​​Champions League next season. In the Turkish championship “Daruššafaka”, which ended this season, he remained sixth, and in the European Cup was left with a playoff victory.

This is not the first time that Daruššafaka is looking for a legionary in Lithuania. In the summer of 2018, Latvian Žanis Peineris, who shone at Lienekabelis in Panevėžys, went to Istanbul.

The Pasvalys team was the first stop in Europe for J.Gillon. After graduating from Syracuse University in 2017, he tried his luck in the National Basketball Association (NBA) Development League for three seasons before signing a contract with Milk Stars.

Last year, a 263-cm-tall, 26-year-old American scored 14 points (38 percent on three points), 2.2 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 14 utility points in 28 minutes in the Lithuanian Basketball League (Betsafe-LKL ).
