One of the biggest questions of the upcoming summer market is: Where will TJ Shorts sign? After an amazing EuroLeague rookie campaign, the American point guard has become the hottest name on the market. Which could be the most likely landing spots for the player?
In his debut season in the EuroLeague, TJ Shorts was one of the best players in the competition.
The American point guard led Paris Basketball to the playoffs and was selected for the All-EuroLeague First Team and named MVP of the play-in tournament, in which Paris won away at Real Madrid to earn their place in the playoffs.
Already in previous seasons, there had been considerable interest in the American point guard. He had won the Basketball Champions League with Bonn and the EuroCup with Paris Basketball.
However, that interest has grown exponentially after his first year in the EuroLeague. TJ Shorts is now, in all likelihood, the most sought-after player on the EuroLeague market.
For Paris Basketball – the club where TJ Shorts truly made his mark – keeping the American point guard will be an extremely difficult task.
He is generating significant interest from top EuroLeague teams, not to mention the possibility of being picked up by an NBA franchise.
Let's analyze what the most likely landing spots for Shorts could be and what advantages and disadvantages each of them could generate.

In recent seasons, TJ Shorts has won the Basketball Champions League and the EuroCup. In his rookie season in the EuroLeague, he reached the playoffs, quickly becoming one of the best players in the competition.
In short, it can be said that he has already proven himself at the European level and won some very important trophies.
At 27 years old, for an American player like him who has never played in the NBA before, he would inevitably want to find a place in the top American league.
