Yudai Baba is Southern Hemisphere-bound, but he hasn’t abandoned his North American aspirations.
One day after the announcement that he had signed with the Melbourne United of Australia’s National Basketball League, Baba expressed excitement Monday about his new challenge playing in another foreign league this upcoming season.
