Kyle Guy, formerly a standout player for Joventut, Panathinaikos, and Tenerife, has made an astonishing comeback to professional basketball. After reaching the Basketball Champions League Final and leading the league in scoring, Guy announced his retirement in the autumn of 2025 to pursue a coaching career with the University of Virginia staff.
