KK Buducnost Voli Podgorica, from Montenegro’s 1A league, have added Jeleel Akindele for the upcoming 2013-14 season. Akindele will be strengthening Buducnost’s frontcourt and will be counted on to anchor the team’s interior defense. The Nigerian known as “Deji” returns to Europe after a brief eight-game run in Lebanon’s Division A, where he played for Champville. In those eight games, Akindele averaged 12.9 ppg and 10.5 rpg.

The 30-year-old Deji moved to Lebanon in April 2013, after playing 25 games in Italy’s SerieA where he suited up for Co.Fi.Ba JuveCaserta. He averaged 12.6 ppg and 8.0 rpg in the Italian league.
