Buducnost VOLI Podgorica strengthened its backcourt with the signing of American combo guard Skylar Mays, the club announced on Thursday.
Mays (1.91 meters, 27 years old) arrives in Podgorica after splitting the 2024–25 season between the NBA G League’s Iowa Wolves and Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul, where he made his EuroLeague debut. Mays averaged 3.7 points in 10 minutes per game over 14 EuroLeague appearances and 7.4 points and 2.9 assists in 10 Turkish League games before leaving the club in January. He posted 12.5 points and 4.4 assists the rest of the season with Iowa.
A 2020 NBA Draft pick by the Atlanta Hawks, Mays played 105 games over parts of four seasons in the NBA with Atlanta, the Portland Trail Blazers, and the Los Angeles Lakers. He also suited up for a handful of teams in the G League. Known for his smooth shooting stroke, high basketball IQ, and rebounding ability for a perimeter player, Mays adds versatility and experience to Buducnost’s guard rotation.
