Per <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">BasketNews<\/a> sources, the 24-year-old is in advanced talks with <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/teams\/700-ldlc-asvel-villeurbanne.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ASVEL Villeurbanne,<\/a> where former NBA star Tony Parker is preparing for his debut season as a EuroLeague head coach.<\/p>\n<p>The French club is showing strong interest in acquiring Washington, who has appeared in 74 NBA games with the Los Angeles Clippers, Phoenix Suns, Milwaukee Bucks, and Houston Rockets.<\/p>\n<p>Across his NBA career, Washington has averaged 2.9 points and 1.1 assists in 9 minutes per game.<\/p>\n<p> TyTy Washington stats <\/p>\n<p>In the 2025-26 season with the Clippers, he posted 1.3 points and 1.1 assists in less than six minutes of action.<\/p>\n<p>Washington spent a significant part of his professional career in the G League. Last season, he averaged 19.5 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 5.7 assists while shooting 41% from three.<\/p>\n<p>Across four G League seasons, Washington has averaged 20.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists, and 1.3 steals, while converting 38% of his 3-point attempts.<\/p>\n<p>Before turning professional, Washington was a five-star recruit who played one season at Kentucky. In January 2022, he broke John Wall&#8217;s Kentucky single-game assists record, finishing with 17 points and 17 assists.<\/p>\n<p>  Four trades in one year <\/p>\n<p>Washington was selected with the 29th overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft, but his NBA journey started with an unusually hectic series of moves.<\/p>\n<p>His draft rights were initially acquired by the Memphis Grizzlies before he was traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves on draft night as part of the Walker Kessler deal and then moved again to the Houston Rockets just days later.<\/p>\n<p>The movement continued the following summer. Washington was traded by Houston to the Atlanta Hawks and, shortly afterward, moved again to the Oklahoma City Thunder in a deal involving Patty Mills \u2013 who, interestingly, is now also set to play under Tony Parker at ASVEL.<\/p>\n<p>Washington was waived by Oklahoma City before the 2023-24 season and later continued his NBA journey on two-way contracts with the Milwaukee Bucks, Phoenix Suns, and Los Angeles Clippers.<\/p>\n<p>ASVEL roster 2026-27<\/p>\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/paveikslelis-197268-tmlg.jpg\" title=\"\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\"\/>  LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne    Position Player Status   PG\/SG <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/players\/6183-patrick-mills.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Patty Mills<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/news-253482-patty-mills-asvel-euroleague-contract.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">story<\/a>) Signed until 2027   SG <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/players\/6913-edwin-jackson.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Edwin Jackson<\/a> Expiring   SF\/PF <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/players\/38937-both-gach.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Both Gach<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/news-251309-both-gach-signs-his-first-euroleague-contract.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">story<\/a>) Signed until 2027   SF\/PF <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/players\/35594-yves-pons.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Yves Pons <\/a>(<a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/news-251518-asvel-announce-signing-of-french-forward.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">story<\/a>) Signed until 2027   SF <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/players\/9540-david-lighty.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">David Lighty<\/a> Expiring   PF <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/players\/35909-nathan-sestina.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nate Sestina<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/news-253582-asvel-officially-sign-american-forward-nate-sestina.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">story<\/a>) Signed until 2027   C <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/players\/20049-joel-bolomboy.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Joel Bolomboy <\/a>(<a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/news-253539-joel-bolomboy-asvel-contract.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">story<\/a>) Signed until 2028   C <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/players\/36143-bodian-massa.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bodian Massa<\/a> Signed until 2027   Coach Tony Parker (Signed until 2028 +1)   Expiring Edwin Jackson, David Lighty   Left Glynn Watson, Pierric Poupet, Zac Seljaas, Paul Eboua, Thomas Heurtel, Adam Atamna, Shaq Harrison, Armel Traore, Braian Angola, Bastien Vautier, Amadou Sow, Melvin Ajinca, Sylvain Francisco, Mbaye Ndiaye   Signed Nick Weiler-Babb (<a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/news-253410-nick-weiler-babb-continues-his-career-in-serbia.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">loaned to Crvena Zvezda<\/a>), Armoni Brooks (<a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/news-253077-asvel-armoni-brooks-valencia-basket-move.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">loaned to Valencia Basket<\/a>), Both Gach, Yves Pons, Tony Parker, Patty Mills, Joel Bolomboy, Nate Sestina   Potential Departures \u00a0   Incoming deals Edwin Jackson   Targets TyTy Washington, David Lighty    Every EuroLeague Team\u2019s Biggest Strength &amp; Red Flag <\/p>\n<p>                                    <img class=\"author-donate__photo\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image-373702-crop144x144.jpg\" alt=\"Donatas Urbonas\" width=\"84\" height=\"84\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Senior Content Creator &amp; Strategist<\/p>\n<p>                                                    <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/plus?utm_source=basketnews_com&amp;utm_medium=bn_plus&amp;utm_id=UA-259273-31&amp;utm_campaign=banners_free_content_for_not_members_bottom_6\" class=\"banners_paid_content_info_block_white banners-paid-content-info-block-white\" data-google-interstitial=\"false\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>                                                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"bn-plus-img img-fluid\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/bn-plus.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                                            Thank you for reading us!
