Here is last year's roster for KTP Basket Koska

They finished last season 17-23, and in 8th place in the 11-team Korisliiga. They were the final team to qualify for their postseason playoffs and were seeded 8th, and they were eliminated in the first round 3 games to 1 by the #1 seeded team.

This site (Eurobasket.com which is usually reliable) shows that Donte's signing makes 5 former Bradley players who have signed to play professionally this coming season, 2019-20-

Zach Andrews- Bangkok Tigers of the TBL in Thailand
Marcellus Sommerville- Orleans of the French Pro A League
Andrew Warren- Dinamica Mantova of the Serie A2 league in Italy
Chris Roberts- Blu Basket Gruppo Remer Treviglio of the Serie A2 league in Italy
Jimmy Gavin- BC Igokea Alecsandrovak in the Division I pro league in Bosnia

However, I seem to recall that Marcellus Sommerville announced his decision to retire, so it looks like he won't be playing in 2018-19.

In addition, Walt Lemon has signed a contract with the Boston Celtics.
A bunch of other former BU players played professionally last season (see the list in the above link), and will likely look to sign and play again this season. We will report if we hear of any more signings.
