Construction of Will Wade's LSU basketball roster continues with the reported addition of Israeli guard Yam Madar, a 2020 Celtics NBA Draft pick.

The 25-year-old Madar has extensive pro basketball experience overseas and was the 2023 EuroLeague Rising Star playing for Partizan Belgrade. He's also played for Haopel Tel Aviv (Israel), Fenerbache (Turkey) and Bayern Munich (Germany).

A report from European outlet Mozzart Sport, claims Madar is headed to LSU in a lucrative move, claiming a $5 million deal.

Per Mozzart Sport, "Madar has been dissatisfied with the treatment at Hapoel for some time, during the quarterfinal with Real he was given a total of 10 minutes and he played less than five minutes in the second game and a little more than six minutes in the fourth game. That's why going to the NCAA turned out to be a great solution for him."

Per Sports Illustrated's Kevin Sweeney, Madar's eligibility would "come as a result of exemptions for military service as well as national team participation, which can provide another avenue for a permissible year of delayed enrollment."

The point guard was drafted No. 47 overall in the 2020 NBA Draft by the Boston Celtics and played on the Celtics' 2021 Summer League team before returning overseas.

Wade's roster build in his return to Baton Rouge has been a slow burn. It took weeks for the former NC State coach to land his first transfer commitment, but has since added small forward Mouhamed Dioubate (Kentucky), combo guard Divine Ugochukwi (Michigan State) and shooting guard Abdi Bashir Jr. (Kansas State)

Madar is 25 years old and will turn 26 during the 2026-27 season (Dec. 21).

Madar was selected in the second round of the 2020 NBA Draft (pick No. 47 overall). He played with the Celtics Summer League team in 2021.
