The former Kentucky big man has returned to his native Sydney, Australia to play for the Sydney Kings of the National Basketball League. It’s a one-year deal, worth an undisclosed amount, but it was enough for Humphries to pass up his NBA hopes and move back to be around his friends and family.

More from Fox Sports Australia:

Humphries received offers from teams in the Adriatic League, Italy’s Serie A, Germany’s BBL, and the Greek Basket League, among others, but ultimately decided on the Kings; an organisation that had been openly recruiting him for the better part of seven months.
