Teams in Australia's NBL tend to sort out their rosters nice and early, and so even though we're several months away from the 2010-11 season tipping off, many rosters are all but complete already. Despite him winning the NBL MVP trophy last season, the Townsville Crocodiles have released Corey "Homicide" Williams, and have not named a replacement import, although they have brought in former St. Mary's big man Ben Allen (who is also currently trying out for the Australian national team.) The Melbourne Tigers have brought home from America another big Aussie centre (Luke Nevill), and have signed Eric Devendorf to score from them after his hugely successful offseason in New Zealand (at least basketball wise; Devendorf managed to get arrested for breach of the peace in there as well.) And the Sydney Kings are returning to the NBL after a season out due to financial difficulties, bringing with them Taj McCullough, who had previously been in Latvia with VEF Riga.

Winthrop graduate and former Wizards signee T-Mac started the season in Israel, playing for Ramat Gan. He averaged 13.4 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.1 steals in 24 minutes per game, before leaving the team to go and try out for VEF Riga in Latvia. He was later signed for the remainder of the season by Riga, and has averaged 18.9 points and 6.9 rebounds in the Baltic League. Latvian basketball as described by a Briton. My mum's quite proud, I think.
