Player Info

Elijah Hughes is a skilled swingman currently applying his trade with EnBW Ludwigsburg in the German Basketball Bundesliga. The 27-year-old from Beacon, New York, developed into a prolific scorer at Syracuse University, leading to his selection by the Utah Jazz with the 39th pick in the 2020 NBA Draft. Hughes saw limited action in the NBA with the Jazz and Portland Trail Blazers, often shuffling between the big club and the G League. Seeking a more prominent role, he made the move to Europe, where his scoring ability and size on the wing have made him an impactful player. His professional highlights include strong performances in the G League and now as a key offensive option in one of Europe's top leagues. Hughes is known for a smooth, left-handed shooting stroke and the ability to create his own shot off the dribble. His game translates well to the international style, where his scoring versatility is a major asset. He continues to be a potent offensive threat as he builds his career overseas.
