Lonnie Walker IV, the dynamic 25-year-old guard, has agreed to sign with Lithuanian powerhouse Zalgiris Kaunas, one of the Euroleague’s most competitive and storied teams.

This move was confirmed by his agent, George S. Langberg of GSL Sports Group, in a report to Shams Charania.

The contract includes an NBA buyout clause, which allows Walker the flexibility to return to the NBA if an opportunity arises before February 18.

This feature in his contract could be a strategic choice, giving him the option to play abroad while remaining open to returning to the NBA mid-season.

Walker, known for his athleticism, strong scoring ability, and impact as a shooting guard, has spent six seasons in the NBA, where he established himself as a solid rotational player, averaging 10 points per game over roughly 20 minutes on the floor.

His NBA experience, which includes stints with teams like the San Antonio Spurs and the Los Angeles Lakers, has made him a versatile player able to adapt to different team roles and styles of play.

Joining Zalgiris Kaunas allows Walker to showcase his scoring and vision in the Euroleague, gaining international experience that could enhance his game.
