Isaiah Hicks is headed overseas to continue his professional career

Ever since helping the Tar Heels win a national championship back in 2017, Isaiah Hicks had been doing everything that he could to earn a roster spot with the New York Knicks. After spending the summer playing for the Charlotte Hornets in the NBA Summer League, Hicks’ career path has now shifted and he will be taking his talents overseas.

Yesterday afternoon, Inside Carolina’s Ross Martin reported that Isaiah Hicks signed a contract to play basketball for the VTB United League, which is considered the highest level of Russian basketball.
