After struggling to crack the Cavaliers NBA roster, Pointer will continue his basketball career in Israel.
Former St. John’s forward Sir’Dominic Pointer has signed a two-year deal with Hapoel Eliat, a basketball club in Israel. The athletic forward will play on a squad that had former Marshall and Iowa State star DeAndre Kane - and unlike so many US imports to the international game, will have the semi-security of a multi-year contract.
Hapoel Eliat finished 20-17 in 2015-2016, third in the Israeli first division; the team has also re-signed former Ohio State wing LaQuinton Ross as another foreign import.
