During the 2008–09 season, he exploded for a season high of 36 points against Khimik Yuzhny, in a game where he got to the free throw line 19 times. Gladyr helped MBС Mykolaiv to a fifth-place finish in the Ukrainian Super League in the 2008–09 season, by averaging 15.4 points per game.
In July 2009, Gladyr signed a three-year deal with Bàsquet Manresa of the Liga ACB.[1] [2] In August 2012, he signed with Baloncesto Fuenlabrada for the 2012–13 season.[3]

On 25 August 2015 it was announced that he signed with İstanbul BB of the Turkish Basketball League,[6] however the team rescinded the contract after he failed the physical.[7] On September 9, he signed with AS Monaco Basket of the French LNB Pro A.[8]
Gladyr was drafted by the NBA team the Atlanta Hawks in the second round of the 2009 NBA draft, with the 49th pick overall.[9] [10] He did not play for an NBA summer league team after the draft since the Atlanta Hawks did not field a team, but he did show up for the Hawks rookie mini-camp.[11] He played for the Hawks in the NBA Summer League in 2010[12] and 2013.[13]
In 2017, his draft rights were traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers.[14]
Gladyr is a classic two-guard. He's got a phenomenal shooting touch in addition to his athleticism, which allows him to easily pass by defenders and dunk the ball over them. He's turned into a real showman during the 2008–09 season in Ukraine, with the April All-Star Game highlighting his performance: Gladyr scored a game-high 24 points and also dished out nine assists. He also set his home crowd on fire as he took the 3-point shootout title, defeating BC Kyiv's Manuchar Markoishvili in the final.
Sergiy Gladyr is married to Olena Khomrova, a Ukrainian fencer. They have one daughter, Eva.[15]
