Indian guard Vijay Sule has completed a move to Lithuanian outfit US Titans, adding another international chapter to his professional career. The signing places the Mumbai-born player in one of Europe’s most competitive basketball ecosystems.
He joined the side after a successful stint with Team CNX Orion in the Warriors League in Thailand, according to a report from Ekalavyas. His exceptional performance with the club earned him a contract with the Titans, a club competing in the Kaunas League.
A backcourt player known for perimeter shooting, ball control, and defensive pressure, he has focused on adapting to faster, more physical styles of play. His exposure to overseas systems has helped him develop as a two-way guard capable of scoring and facilitating.
Originally from Maharashtra, he has played competitive basketball in the UK and the U.S., including with the New York City Black Eagles in a U.S. minor professional league, and attended scouting events that led to developmental league interest.
Beyond playing professionally, Sule has also been involved in grassroots development, working to create pathways for young Indian players who aim to compete abroad. His move to Lithuania reflects a continued push to test himself in established European structures.
