Stashed Boston Celtics floor general Yam Madar signs two-year deal with Fenerbahce

While it looked like there was perhaps at least a small chance that long-stashed Israeli point guard Yam Madar might finally join the Boston Celtics this coming season, instead Madar finds himself embroiled in a contract dispute.

While it looked like there was perhaps at least a small chance that long-stashed Israeli point guard Yam Madar might finally join the Boston Celtics this coming season, instead Madar finds himself embroiled in a contract dispute for the second time in his career.

Madar, who previously fought with Israeli club Hapoel Tel Aviv to leave that team’s roster to make the leap to a higher level of competition, now finds himself at odds with European club KK Partizan Mozzart Bet, having since decided to take his talents to the Turkish basketball powerhouse Fenerbahce Beko after “delayed payments”.

Per Eurohoops’ Bugra Uzar, the Israeli has signed a two-plus-one-year deal with the Istanbul-based ball club that plays in both the Turkish Basketball Super League and the EuroLeague.

Celtics alumnus Carsen Edwards reportedly in advanced talks with Fenerbahce Beko

The Purdue Product may be headed to the Euroleague.

Yet another recent Boston Celtics alumnus may soon be finding a roster spot overseas. The Celtics’ No. 33 pick of the 2019 NBA draft, Carsen Edwards, is in advanced talks to sign with famed Turkish ball club Fenerbahce Beko per SportsTV’s Umit Avci via EuroHoops’ Bugra Uzar.

The former Purdue standout played two seasons with Boston before he was dealt with reserve point guard Kris Dunn and a 2026 second-round draft pick to the Memphis Grizzlies for Juancho Hernangomez in September 2021. He was cut by the Griz, and subsequently signed with the Detroit Pistons for the 2021-22 NBA season.

Now a free agent, it is looking like playing with Fenerbahce Beko in Istanbul in the Euroleague and BSL leagues will be his most profitable and high-level option for the Texan guard’s near-term future.

Edwards averaged 3.6 points and 1.1 rebounds per game in his time as a Celtic.

El gran gesto de Mesut Özil con el Fenerbahce

Luego de ser cortado del Arsenal, el futbolista alemán Mesut Özil firmó con el Fenerbahce y tuvo un gesto humano muy grande con el equipo

Luego de ser cortado del Arsenal, el futbolista alemán Mesut Özil firmó con el Fenerbahce, el que considera el club de sus amores.

Y tanto es el amor del futbolista de origen turco por el Fenerbahce que accedió a jugar para sus filas con una importante reducción en su salario pues es su intención retirarse en el equipo que juega en la Superliga de Turquía.

Özil cobrará 3 millones de euros al año, mucho menos de los 16 millones que cobraba cuando estaba en el Arsenal, pero hay una razón de fondo, el campeón del mundo con Alemania quiere apoyar económicamente a su equipo en la pandemia y jugará gratis hasta el comienzo de la siguiente temporada.

Mesut Özil ya debutó en Turquía y tuvo participación en el segundo gol de su equipo en la victoria 2-1 sobre el Hatayspor.

Tuvieron que pasar 11 meses para volver a ver a Özil en un terreno de juego, pero acciones como la que está teniendo con el equipo turco solamente demuestra la grandeza del futbolista de 32 años de edad.
