The competitive landscape of the upcoming 2026-27 BKT EuroCup season shifted on Sunday as two prominent clubs finalized major roster moves, with ratiopharm Ulm picking up guard Jaylen Sims and Bahcesehir Koleji extending power forward Tyler Cavanaugh. Ulm’s acquisition of Sims, a recently crowned NBA G League champion, brings significant size and athleticism to their backcourt. The 27-year-old guard joins the German club following a stellar campaign with the Greensboro Swarm, where he averaged 16.8 points and 5.1 rebounds per game to lead the team to a title.

Rod Boone: #Hornets are signing Jaylen Sims of the @greensboroswarm to a 10-day contract, per league sources. Sims, Greensboro’s all-time leading scorer, becomes the second member of the Swarm to receive a 10-day contract, joining Marcus Garrett. Sims is expected to wear No. 33.

The Hornets have officially signed four players, the team announced this week in a press release. While the Hornets didn’t reveal the terms of the deals in their release, Jaylen Sims, Tre Scott, Nathan Mensah, and Angelo Allegri all received Exhibit 10 contracts, Hoops Rumors can confirm.

Hornets President of Basketball Operations & General Manager Mitch Kupchak announced today the team has signed Angelo Allegri, Nathan Mensah, Tre Scott and Jaylen Sims. All four players played for the Hornets in the California Classic and NBA 2K24 summer leagues.

The Charlotte Hornets have signed Jalen Crutcher, Anthony Duruji, Jaylen Sims and Isaiah Whaley, President of Basketball Operations and General Manager Mitch Kupchak announced Monday. Per team policy, terms of the deals were not disclosed. Crutcher, a 6-2 guard, averaged 16.2 points, 3.2 rebounds and 6.0 assists while shooting 47.9 percent from the field and 43.6 percent from 3-point range last season in 33 games with the Greensboro Swarm. He recorded 6.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game in five contests with the Hornets in the NBA 2K23 Summer League.

Jon Chepkevich: UNC Wilmington’s Jaylen Sims will join the Toronto Raptors for NBA Summer League, sources tell @RookieScale. 6’6” All-CAA wing who excels as a pick-and-roll + isolation scorer. Makes a living getting to and fishing at the free throw stripe.
