Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz has secured its second summer of the summer after inking Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot to a two-year deal, the club announced Wednesday. Luwawu-Cabarrot (2.01 meters, 29 years old) arrives from LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne, where he averaged a team-high 13.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.1 steals in 28 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague games last season.
The 2023-24 campaign was Luwawu-Cabarrot's first full season in the EuroLeague after making 24 appearances with EA7 Emporio Armani Milan in 2022-23. That season with Milan marked Luwawu-Cabarrot's return to the European continent. He debuted professionally as a teenager with Antibes in his native France and spent one season at Mega Basket in Serbia before playing the bulk of his career in the NBA. Across the pond, he averaged 5.9 points and 2.0 rebounds over 342 career games with the Philadelphia 76ers, Oklahoma City Thunder, Chicago Bulls, Brooklyn Nets and Atlanta Hawks. He also spent time in the G League with Delaware and Long Island.
During his career, Luwawu-Cabarrot helped Antibes return to the French top flight in 2013 and win the ProB Leaders Cup in 2015. With Mega, he won the Serbian Cup in 2016, and he helped Milan win the Italian League championship in 2023. Luwawu-Cabarrot has also been a regular with the French national team, with which he won silver medals at the 2020 Olympic Games and EuroBasket 2022.
