After playing for the Santa Cruz Warriors of the G-League, Lee signed a three-year contract with the NBL Illawarra Hawks. After playing for the Osaka Evesa in the B-League, Lee built himself up in Korea and handed him to the U.S. as soon as he finished the Australian League.
An A2G source said, “Lee will play at least four games or at most six games in the U.S. We had a workout with two NBA teams, and Portland took Lee’s good view and successfully signed a contract for the Summer League. Lee himself plans to work hard and try again in the NBA. Even if he fails to sign an official contract, he will return to the Australian League where he signed a three-year contract.”
