Wish him well. Hope he sets the world on fire down there.

Interesting one tweet that said signing Harry was a "major coup." Obviously, they did not see Harry play up here last season.

To be fair, most of his competition down there will be other pasty blonde Australians.

Happy for Harry. I felt for some time he would be able to take advantage of the NBL rules that benefit local talent. Hope he does well.

The story on his Twitter account says that he'll be an automatic entrant in the 2019 NBA draft. What does that mean? Do NBL players automatically get entered in the NBA draft each year?

Harry's new team played in the Australian league championship game last year and has won 4 NBL titles in the past 30 or so years. The 2017-18 roster included Americans Shannon Shorter (North Texas) and Ramone Moore (Temple).

Thats great for him.  Much better than some of the other reports of teams.  NBA vs G League, as far as Australia is concerned.  Hope he becomes a star

 I hope you have great success in NBL.  Always remember you consoling Rowsey when you were having a tough time too.  Thanks for holding a Standard.

Andrew Bogut is retiring from the NBA and is headed back to Australia.  He is signing an NBL contract with the Sydney Kings.
