After a season in Israel, Darrun Hilliard is heading to Turkey.

Pinar Karsiyaka, which plays in the Basketball Champions League (BCL), has officially announced that the 30-year-old guard is joining the organization on a one-year deal.

After being a featured player on the FC Bayern Munich's roster during the 2021-22 season, Hilliard didn't find his sweet spot in the Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv rotation last year.
