Springfield Holyoke, MA, October 16, 2026 —

Former Boston Celtics guard Lonnie Walker IV is heading back overseas after being waived by the Denver Nuggets. He is set to sign with Besiktas, a Turkish club, for the upcoming season.

The move would take Walker from the NBA to a club in Turkey. The available information does not specify when the signing is expected to be completed, the length or financial terms of a contract, or when Besiktas’ upcoming season begins. It also does not provide details about the circumstances of Walker’s departure from Denver.

Walker is described in the information provided as a former Celtics guard and a former member of the Nuggets, who waived him. No dates are given for his time with either team, and no further details about his playing history or role at Besiktas were provided. The report identifies Besiktas as the destination but does not say whether the club has made a public announcement.

For now, the central development is Walker’s expected return to overseas basketball and his planned move to Besiktas. Further specifics—including the timing and terms of the deal—were not provided. The move is described as being for the upcoming season, but the season’s dates and Walker’s expected arrival are unspecified.
