Bost spent the last season and a half with Turkish side Galatasaray Istanbul.

In the first half of the season, Bost averaged 11.1 points, 5.4 assists, and 2.3 rebounds per game in the Turkish League. Bost is no stranger to French basketball, as he has already spent time with SIG Strasbourg and Monaco.

ASVEL are currently at the bottom of the EuroLeague standings with 6 wins and 12 losses. The French side had started to track Bost's case in the past few weeks, but the first attempts to lure him away from Galatasaray were unsuccessful.

Bost is expected to sign a deal until the end of the 2023-24 season, sources have told BasketNews.

During his European career, Bost also played for other EuroLeague teams such as Zalgiris Kaunas and Khimki.

In his last EuroLeague stint in the 2018-19 season, Bost averaged 7.9 points, 2.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 7.7 PIR in 23 games for Khimki Moscow Region.
