BELGRADE — Partizan Mozzart Bet have signed American guard Antonio Reeves for his first spell in Europe, the club announced on social media. The move comes with Partizan sitting on three wins and three losses after six rounds in the EuroLeague and in need of additional depth in the backcourt.
Reeves, born on 20 November 2000, arrives from the Iowa Wolves of the NBA G League. The former Illinois State and Kentucky guard was selected in the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft by the Orlando Magic and has spent the past two seasons in the NBA with the New Orleans Pelicans and Charlotte Hornets before being left without a contract ahead of the new season.
In a press release, the club said: “The new basketball player of Partizan Mozzart Bet is Antonio Reeves! The American basketball player, born on November 20, 2000, comes from the Iowa Wolves team, which competes in the NBA G League. During his college career, he played for Illinois State and Kentucky, and in the 2024 NBA draft, he was selected in the second round by the Orlando Magic.”
For Reeves, the switch marks the first time in his career he will play in Europe. Partizan have made clear they required at least one more guard to support their EuroLeague campaign, and the addition provides further options as the Belgrade side look to build on their even start to the season.
