My Take

Cedi Osman is a fascinating little knot of identity to me: born in Ohrid, North Macedonia, yet a Turkish basketball product through and through. At 204cm playing small forward, he was always built to do a bit of everything, and I remember his Cleveland Cavaliers years as the energetic young wing trying to find his footing on a rebuilding team after the LeBron era. The move back to Europe with Panathinaikos in the EuroLeague feels honest rather than a step down; he's the type who thrives when given a real role and a passionate crowd. I tend to admire players who chase fit over flash, and his journey reads exactly that way.

Overview

Cedi Osman (Turkish pronunciation: [ˈdʒedi ˈosman]; born 8 April 1995) is a Turkish professional basketball player for Panathinaikos of the Greek Basketball League (GBL) and the EuroLeague. He was drafted with the 31st pick in the 2015 NBA draft and played for the Cleveland Cavaliers and the San Antonio Spurs over the span of seven seasons. He plays at the small forward position.
