Where Are They Now? Part 15

Devin Green is playing for Siviglia Wear Teramo in Italy, alongside Hassan Adams and friends.

Orien Greene is playing for Hapoel Jerusalem in Israel, and hasn't been there for very long.

Lynn Greer took a buyout from the Bucks this summer of $0 to go back to Europe, and now he is playing for Olympiakos in Greece. Greer is also one of Europe's highest paid players, as his current paycheck shits on the $687,456 before tax that Milwaukee had him down for. And he's also playing extremely well. It's worked out rather well for Lynn, all told.

Vincent Grier is playing for Gravelines in the French league, a town whose name isn't pronounced how it looks like it is.

Eddie Griffin is still dead.

Rob Griffin isn't dead, and is playing for the Fort Wayne Mad Pants in the D-League.

Rashard Griffith is playing for Poliesti in Romania, the only player in this list (I think) playing in that country. Griffith is now 33, and any chance of him joining the NBA has long since passed.

Anthony Grundy is playing for Panellinios Athens in Greece.

Tom Gugliotta has been out of the game for a long time.

Marcus Haislip is playing for CSKA Moscow, but is having a little bit of trouble travelling with the team, as he hasn't been issued a new passport due to unpaid back taxes. Tut tut tut.

Mike Hall is playing for the Tulsa 66ers in the D-League. Also on that team is Keith Closs, who is attempting a comeback now aged 32 after faffing up his first shot at the NBA. Now off of the drink, and apparently more motivated than ever, Closs is blocking shots at an outstanding rate in the D-League (2.8 a game in only 19.4 minutes), but isn't doing much of anything else (6.6 points and 4.7 rebounds). Still, nice story. Maybe he'll get an NBA camp invite.

Yotam Halperin, as mentioned earlier, is playing for Maccabi Tel-Aviv.
