Partizan Belgrade<\/strong> have completed another signing ahead of the 2026-27 season. According to Nova.rs<\/strong><\/a>, the Serbian club has reached an agreement with Ethan Thompson<\/strong>, who will leave the Indiana Pacers<\/strong> to sign a one-year contract with an option for a second season<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A member of the Puerto Rico national team<\/strong>, Thompson is a shooting guard who arrives in Europe after spending most of his professional career between the NBA<\/strong> and the G League<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

After going undrafted, the 26-year-old earned opportunities with the Chicago Bulls<\/strong>, Miami Heat<\/strong>, and Orlando Magic<\/strong> organizations before eventually finding a role with the Indiana Pacers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Thompson joined Indiana in December and made his NBA debut against the Cleveland Cavaliers<\/strong> on December 1, scoring his first NBA points in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n

He went on to appear in 32 games<\/strong> for the Pacers, making 13 starts<\/strong>, while posting a career-high 24 points<\/strong> against the Chicago Bulls<\/strong> on 8-of-15 shooting<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The move marks Thompson’s first experience in European basketball<\/strong>, where he is expected to play a key role for Partizan in both the EuroLeague<\/strong> and the ABA League<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
