Eventually, he played in Legnano, in Biella and then in Brescia, Treviso (11.8 points per game, 38.9 percent shooting from three), Verona (10.0 points per game), and also a stint in Spain, playing for Manresa. In 2021\/22, in Treviso, he was named BCL&#8217;s &#8220;Best Young Player&#8221; (14.7 points per game).
