In 2011, Klimenko joined BC Avtodor Saratov.

In March 2014, Klimenko announced his intentions to enter the 2014 NBA draft.[1] In May 2014, Avtodor added a buy-out clause to his contract, and he later travelled to the United States to attend various NBA workouts.[2] On June 26, 2014, he went undrafted in the 2014 draft.

In the 2015–16 season, Klimenko won the VTB United League Young Player of the Year award.[3]

Early December 2016, Klimenko signed a contract with UNICS Kazan until the end of the 2016-2017 season.[4]

On July 10, 2018, Klimenko signed a three-year contract with UNICS.[5]

gollark: That's just bees, we have them already.
gollark: But seriously I need ideas.
gollark: Wonderful.
gollark: Ah yes, following the tradition of PotatOS, AvocadOS, BurritOS, YomatOS, TomatOS and ShutdownOS.
gollark: > I'm a dedicated member of the esolangs esocommunity - even if I only made three esolangs and they are mostly joke languages and not very good, I am pretty actively on the discord and contribute* to conversations. I would NOT do the problematic stuff you do such as randomly removing roles people liked, randomly muting and/or kicking people, generally punishing people excessively for small things, insulting people (e.g. telling them to kill themselves) for having different food preferences, breaking bots for ages, or deleting 2000 messages [DATA EXPUNGED], a mere orthographic projection of your badness.> Also, I want the nice staff color and want Nobody/Palaiologos (how do you SPELL THAT) to stop doxxing people. Additionally, I have many innovations I'd like to bring to the server, such as a dodecahedron emoji, and can help develop some of them because I am somewhat okay at bot development, if not graphic design.
