What are some of the best currently active former NBA players who just randomly flamed out and are currently playing abroad? I’m talking about players who were in the NBA for a while and played significant roles but suddenly just left the NBA because they eventually weren’t good enough (or maybe got more money). Leave out any players who had to leave because of injury or because they got too old.
For example, Frank Ntilikina played several years in the NBA and got real minutes but now is playing in Serbia. Or Ty Lawson, who was a legit double-double threat in the NBA at one point but has been playing abroad for a few years now.
Josh Childress.
Childress didn’t flame out, he was offered more money in his prime. It was a big story because he was the first American player to actively choose to play in the Euroleague over the NBA. He had plenty of interest from the league.
I know. OP also asked for guys who got more money in europe.
That he did, my bad.
