Buducnost VOLI secured a vital piece on Saturday by extending the contract of 33-year-old playmaker Yogi Ferrell. The experienced guard, a veteran of 259 NBA games, committed to the Montenegrin champions through the end of the 2026-27 campaign. Fresh off an impressive continental campaign where he averaged over 13.2 points, 4.1 assists, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.1 steals per game while showcasing elite perimeter shooting accuracy, his overseas career spanned Greece, Slovenia, and China before taking his talents to Podgorica in 2023.

Yogi Ferrell: A few thoughts while living in Europe: 1. You can park anywhere as long as you’re out of the way 2. Greek gyros are the best thing I’ve ever had 3. Milk goes bad in 3 days 🤢 4. Europeans love old school music, I love it 5. First you pump gas in the whip and then you pay

The source said Vivek Ranadive and Brandon Williams were driving forces behind the decision to draft Marvin Bagley III over Luka Doncic in 2018, but there was consensus within the organization because Bagley was a “modern-day big who could run the floor with De’Aaron Fox.” The source said the Kings nearly acquired Jordan Clarkson from the Cleveland Cavaliers in a trade involving Yogi Ferrell, but they didn’t act fast enough due to Ranadive’s involvement. Instead, the Cavaliers traded Clarkson to the Utah Jazz, where he would become the NBA Sixth Man of the Year, in exchange for Dante Exum and two future second-round draft picks.
He also breaks down the most notable differences he has noticed between NBA and European basketball, recalls his days with the Dallas Mavericks, and whether he regrets backing out of an agreement to continue with the team. “I feel like I would do the same and decide to go to Sacramento,” says Ferrell about his decision to leave the Mavs. “They made moves that were best for their franchise. I re-evaluated the situation and, basically, I felt like I needed to make a move for myself”. Ferrell also revealed his goal to get back in the NBA: “I’m definitely hoping so. I definitely want to get back over there and still show I belong in the league”, he told the EurohooPOD.
After recently parting ways with Greek club Panathinaikos, Yogi Ferrell has lined up a new opportunity in Europe, having signed for the rest of the season with KK Cedevita Olimpija, the Slovenian club announced in a press release.
Yogi Ferrell and Jehyve Floyd are leaving the team. Both of them are not active on the Greek league roster, however there’s no limit on foreign players for the EuroLeague games. And in both cases, so far they have a very limited role. That’s why Ferrell himself asked from the team to be released in order to find elsewhere more minutes and a different role.
