Early years
Osman was born in Ohrid, Macedonia, modern-day North Macedonia to a Turkish father and a Bosniak mother (from Novi Pazar, Serbia).[2][3] He has an older brother, Caner, who is also a basketball player.[4] He started playing basketball with KK Bosna's youth teams in 2001. Due to his paternal Turkish background, he became a Turkish citizen, as per Turkey's right-of-return laws. Since then, he has also represented the Turkey men's national basketball team.
Professional career
Anadolu Efes (2011–2017)
In 2007, Osman signed a youth team contract with Anadolu Efes after his outstanding performance at KK Bosna. He played for the junior, star, and youth teams of Anadolu Efes. He was loaned for the 2011–12 season to the Pertevniyal of the Turkish Basketball First League, which was at the time the farm team of Anadolu Efes. In the summer of 2012, Osman signed a professional contract with the Anadolu Efes senior team.
Cleveland Cavaliers (2017–2023)
On 25 June 2015, Osman was selected with the 31st overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft, by the Minnesota Timberwolves. His draft rights, along with those of Rakeem Christmas and a future draft pick, were then traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers, in exchange for the draft rights to Tyus Jones that same night.[5]

On 25 January 2019, in a 100–94 loss to the Miami Heat, Osman scored a career-high 29 points. Four days later, Osman was named a participant for the 2019 Rising Stars Challenge as a member of the World Team.[7]
