Donatas Urbonas: Elie Okobo is another guy who might get the NBA deal. And actually, that’s his main goal, why he went to Europe, he just wanted to get some confidence to show NBA teams that that he can play. And I’ve actually heard that there were some NBA teams who wanted him during the season, but probably it was more about two-way contracts options. -via Spotify / March 29, 2022
