So I hadn't heard anything about the man, other than he was attempting an NBA come back at some point, but, what with no Euro ball (or anywhere else for that matter) and nothing in the G league I did a little google news search and came across this:

Obviously nothing concrete, but, after a bit of time out of the game, and his last meaningful court time coming well before his time at CSKA, maybe the guy is hanging up the shoes.
Coupled with the waning of Luol Deng's career, Ben Gordon's downward spiral and Byron Mullens... Actually scrap Byron Mullens, it looks as if the truly high flying Brits have all gone. Well, there is OG Anunoby, but I can't see the federation getting it's own house in order to get the guy to play.
