Professional career

[edit]

Gladyr began his career with one of the smallest teams in the Ukrainian Super League, MBС Mykolaiv.

Gladyr shot 47% on three-point shots and 90% on free throws in the Ukrainian Super League, during the 2007–08 season, before taking a slight step back in his shooting percentages in the 2008–09 season (shooting 36% from three-point range and 81% from the free throw line respectively). During the 2008–09 season, he exploded for a season high of 36 points against Khimik Yuzhny, in a game where he got to the free throw line 19 times. Gladyr helped MBС Mykolaiv to a fifth-place finish in the Ukrainian Super League in the 2008–09 season, by averaging 15.4 points per game.

In July 2009, Gladyr signed a three-year deal with Bàsquet Manresa of the Liga ACB.[1][2] In August 2012, he signed with Baloncesto Fuenlabrada for the 2012–13 season.[3]

On 1 October 2013 Gladyr signed a one-year deal with the French EuroLeague team JSF Nanterre.[4]

On 21 August 2014 he signed with SLUC Nancy Basket for the 2014–15 season.[5] In 33 games of the French Pro A he averaged 12.1 points and 3.5 rebounds per game.

On 25 August 2015 it was announced that he signed with İstanbul BB of the Turkish Basketball League,[6] however the team rescinded the contract after he failed the physical.[7] On September 9, he signed with AS Monaco Basket of the French LNB Pro A.[8]

NBA

[edit]

Gladyr was drafted by the NBA team the Atlanta Hawks in the second round of the 2009 NBA draft, with the 49th pick overall.[9][10] He did not play for an NBA summer league team after the draft since the Atlanta Hawks did not field a team, but he did show up for the Hawks rookie mini-camp.[11] He played for the Hawks in the NBA Summer League in 2010[12] and 2013.[13]

In 2017, his draft rights were traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers.[14]

Player profile

[edit]

Gladyr is a classic two-guard. He's got a phenomenal shooting touch in addition to his athleticism, which allows him to easily pass by defenders and dunk the ball over them. He's turned into a real showman during the 2008–09 season in Ukraine, with the April All-Star Game highlighting his performance: Gladyr scored a game-high 24 points and also dished out nine assists. He also set his home crowd on fire as he took the 3-point shootout title, defeating BC Kyiv's Manuchar Markoishvili in the final.

Personal life

[edit]

Sergiy Gladyr is married to Olena Khomrova, a Ukrainian fencer. They have one daughter, Eva.[15]
