After not being selected in the 2022 NBA draft, the 21-year-old point guard has a contract for one more season with Fuenlabrada, but he's expected to leave. According to Encestando, Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz inquired a few weeks ago about his situation.

Samar's Euroleague-out clause is 300,000 euros and he has been one of the most important players in Fuenlabrada, who managed to stay in the elite of Spanish basketball for another season.

In the 30 games he played, Samar averaged 7.6 points, 2.7 rebounds and 4.7 assists for a total PIR of 11.
