Evbuomwan began the 2025/26 season on a two-way deal with the New York Knicks, appearing in five regular-season games while splitting time with the Westchester Knicks before being waived on 7 January.
The 24-year-old previously recorded his most extended NBA run during the 2024/25 campaign with the Brooklyn Nets, appearing in 28 games and averaging 9.5 points.
A former Princeton standout, Evbuomwan was named 2021/22 Ivy League Player of the Year and 2022/23 Ivy League Tournament Most Valuable Player, helping lead the Tigers to the Sweet Sixteen in 2023.
A two-way contract allows a player to split time between the NBA roster and the team’s G League affiliate. Evbuomwan has represented Great Britain at U18 level in FIBA European competition but is yet to feature for the senior national team.
Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
