Veteran wing Mario Hezonja is making an aggressive push to return to the NBA this offseason. Hezonja is on a long-term contract with Real Madrid in Spain, but has an NBA out until July 20 of this year. The buyout for Hezonja's contract with Real Madrid is expected to be around $850,000.

Hezonja hasn't played in the NBA since the 2019-20 season with the Portland Trail Blazers. Since then, the now 31-year-old wing has spent one season apiece in Greece and Russia, before playing the last four seasons with Real Madrid.

In 80 games across all competitions last season, Hezonja averaged 15.0 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game. The 6-foot-8 wing also shot 44.4% from the field.
