Kai Sotto has decided to leave the Adelaide 36ers to pursue another opportunity in a foreign league.
Sotto, who has averaged 7.1 points and 4.5 rebounds in his 50-game stint in the NBL throughout two seasons, is reportedly set to take his act to Japan B.League with the Hiroshima Dragonflies.
The 7-foot-2 center has been a regular starter for the Sixers and has put up solid numbers for the NBL team. The 20-year-old Sotto also felt that “the time was right in his career for the next challenge” citing his journey towards his goal to make the bigger league as the primary reason for the move.
“A new opportunity for me is really good and another opportunity for me to play basketball, I’m excited. I didn’t want to spend a lot of time not playing, I’m lucky I’ve been offered this deal,” said Sotto.
