Former Chicago Bulls center and Windy City Bulls G League star Adama Sanogo is leaving the NBA to sign a new contract and play with Trapani Shark in the Italian Lega Basket Serie A.
Sanogo, who was a starter and the leading scorer and rebounder on the University of Connecticut's National Championship team in 2023, played on a two-way deal with the Bulls last season. He'll have the opportunity to earn more minutes and a larger role with the Italian team, with an eye on returning to the NBA in the future.
