The Sydney Kings professional basketball team in the National Basketball League in Australia announced with gusto on Thursday night the signing of former KU standout Perry Ellis.

According to the release, Ellis will participate in a full summer schedule in the United States before joining his new teammates in Sydney unless an NBA contract is offered as a result of his summer performances.

Good for Perry, let's see if he can impress this summer

Congrats Perry. Hopefully just a stepping stone in his way to the NBA.

KC Star article says he's a 6'7" forward. The guy shrunk. Interesting to hear how he has expanded his skill set since leaving Kansas, particularly ball handling.
