Injuries hampered Korkmaz's time in Monaco, limiting him to just three EuroLeague appearances.

In those games—against EA7 Emporio Armani Milan, Anadolu Efes Istanbul, and Real Madrid—the 27-year-old averaged 4.7 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 5.3 PIR in under 12 minutes per contest.

After returning to his home country of Turkiye, Korkmaz logged 10 EuroCup games with Bahcesehir, averaging 6.9 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 4.1 PIR.

He was more productive in the Turkish League, where he put up 13.2 points and 2.1 rebounds per game while shooting 39.8% from three across 14 appearances.

Korkmaz, known for his sharpshooting, is a seven-year NBA veteran who spent his entire time in the league with the Philadelphia 76ers, appearing in 328 games.
