Tyler Dorsey wasobviously the biggest name on the market. He recently parted ways with the Texas Legends and has been contacted by a few EuroLeague clubs.

Although Dorsey's priority was always landing an NBA deal, he reconsidered returning to the EuroLeague without roster space in the league.

BasketNews sources suggested that Dorsey was not under pressure to find a deal in the EuroLeague before the deadline, meaning he was willing to stay in the United States until the end of the season.

Many teams were mentioned on various reports in the last couple of days, but according to BasketNews sources, the list of potential suitors that could make a move for him was way shorter. Of all teams, Fenerbahce Istanbul were the main suitor for the signature of Dorsey.

Only a few more teams are willing to make last-minute adjustments. Per BasketNews sources, Baskonia are exploring the market due to Daulton Hommes' health issues.

Former EuroLeague forward Mindaugas Kuzminskas has emerged as one of the potential solutions in the market of forwards that could stretch the floor. The 33-year-old veteran also has successful ACB experience in Unicaja Malaga.

Kuzminskas is currently under contract with Karsiyaka Izmir (12.5 PPG, 4.8 RPG in Turkey). He received an offer from EuroCup Group A leader Prometey Slobozhanske a few weeks ago, but the Turkish side didn't approve the transfer.

Per BasketNews sources, FC Bayern Munich will try to cover a gap in the rotation left by Augustine Rubit's Achilles injury.

Maccabi Tel Aviv and Partizan Belgrade are the other teams that still explore the market. Partizan are open to an upgrade in the frontline, sources say BasketNews.

While some EuroCup and Basketball Champions League big men are being shopped around, some teams prefer to look for talent overseas, including the G League.

According to sources, former Boston Celtics center Noah Vonleh was pursued by a few EuroLeague clubs before the 2022-23 season, but it's unlikely he'll consider EuroLeague options.

FC Barcelona was reportedly pursuing Leandro Bolmaro, recently released by the Utah Jazz. But Mundo Deportivo announced that both parties hadn't reached an agreement, and a 22-year-old Argentinian guard is not returning to Palau Blaugrana this season.

Anadolu Efes Istanbul were looking for a guard, but the back-to-back champions will unlikely make any signings.

Although the transfer deadline may seem calm, some teams are still pursuing improving their chances of contending for the title, Final Four, or playoffs. As the deadline approaches, anything can happen, and we may see some surprising last-minute moves.
