Will always be an Illini. Will miss his smile heart and his ball skills.
Giorgi Bezhanishvili leaves Illinois to pursue pro opportunities
Legend.
Might be hard if Monte or Trent play overseas but the DIA will try to make it work

His game against OSU was one of my favorite moments of the season. Thank you Giorgi for always being a great ambassador for the team & school.
Thank you Giorgi! Wish you all the best!
That being said, we are screwed next year.

No PANIC, we will be alright. If Kofi stays, very, very good.

I'm sure they will have some kind of ceremony. They will definitely do something with Ayo & Kofi's jersey numbers
A true asset to the program, in so many ways.
Good luck Giorgi, you will be missed.

One of Underwood's signature recruits IMO. Came here when we were near the absolute bottom. Showed this staff has an eye for under the radar talent. One of the players who immediately set the tone for building a culture here.
Good luck Giorgi, now go make some big stacks in Europe, you deserve it. Truly an Illini for life.

A true legend - will miss this kid but so happy for him. Some day I hope he's covering games on TV, but not until he's pursued his hoops career to it's fullest extent.
GIORGI - you were AMAZING!

Giorgi will be remembered in the Big Ten Tourney Championship game as an unstoppable force. Glad he left as a champion
All the best to him. Hope he keeps his options opening for returning. Vaccine rollout not great in Europe right now, may impact teams/finances/seasons.
I know some leagues have a limit on US players. Not sure if it is US college players or US born players. Giorgi would have an advantage as non US born player
