The former Oregon Duck had impressed in Summer League including a 35 point explosion for the Golden State Warriors. However, it was unlikely that Ennis would sign with an NBA team this offseason
Dylan averaged 8 points for Oklahoma City and 10 points for the Warriors during Summer League action. The 25-year-old went un-drafted in the 2017 NBA Draft.
The brotherly love was all over Twitter as both brothers congratulated each other on their contracts.
Congrats to @canadiankidDJE on signing with Mega Bemax in Serbia. Blessed!
