Former Kentucky big man Reid Travis signs first pro contract with European squad
Former Kentucky big man Reid Travis played with the Atlanta Hawks in the NBA Summer League after going undrafted in the 2019 NBA Draft.
However, that’s not where he’ll spend his first professional season. Instead, he’s heading to Europe to play in Germany.
As you can see below, Travis will play for medi bayreuth (that’s the preferred stylization of the name) for the 2019 season:
