Omri Casspi To Play In Israel

Omri Casspi's NBA career looks like it's over.

The veteran forward has reached an agreement with Maccabi Tel Aviv. This is according to Sportando's Emiliano Carchia. The contract is for three years and $3.4MM and it also gives Casspi a managing role in the organization when he does retire.

Casspi is 31 years old and likely saw his NBA career come to an end. The Memphis Grizzlies released him in February to make room for the trades that they did at the trade deadline. In his time with Memphis, he appeared in 36 games, averaging 6.3 PPG on 14 minutes per night.

Casspi was a first-round pick back in 2009 and spent most of his early part of the NBA with the Sacramento Kings. In his 10 years in the NBA, Casspi has spent time with a total of seven teams.

I wish Omri Casspi the best of luck in Israel and thank him for his wonderful time in the NBA.
