Valencia Basket are looking to reinforce their short guard rotation, with Jared Harper, Sam Van Rossom, Martin Hermannsson, and Millan Jimenez out of the perimeter line due to long-term injuries. On top of that, Chris Jones is having an injury-plagued season.

According to Relevo, Real Betis point guard Shannon Evans is expected to land in Valencia to provide another backcourt option for coach Alex Mumbru.

Evans, 28, has never played in the EuroLeague before. Betis is his fourth team in Europe since starting the professional path in 2018.

The 1.85-meter guard averages 21.0 points on 49.2% shooting from the two-point zone and 36.8% from beyond the arc in the ACB League. He also grabs 2.1 rebounds and dishes out 5.4 assists per game for 21.3 PIR.

He leads ACB in scoring and is second in PIR numbers.

Valencia is tied for 11th EuroLeague place after 18 Rounds. The Spanish club plays ASVEL on the road Friday.
