Catching up with 24 ex-Nevada basketball standouts playing pro hoops across six continents

For many Nevada men's basketball players, hoops doesn't end after college. While the Wolf Pack had just two alums play in the NBA this season, at least 24 played professional basketball in 2024-25, most overseas. Nevada players appeared in games in 17 countries across six continents (no Antarctica, if basketball is even played there). With many basketball leagues ending their seasons this month, here is a recap of how each of those Wolf Pack products fared this year. The list includes two NBA players, three G League players and 19 players overseas.

Notable is the fact JaVale McGee didn't play in the NBA this season after debuting in the league in 2008 before playing 16 seasons in the NBA. If his pro career is over, it's by far the best of any Wolf Pack alum with three NBA titles and an Olympic gold medal to his name. Nick Fazekas also isn't on this list for the first time in almost two decades after retiring after a long tenure in Japan. Recent Nevada alum Daniel Foster signed with an Australian team last month but has yet to debut professionally. Meanwhile, 41-year-old Mo Charlo most recently played in the Big3 for the Ghost Ballers, so his career might not be over quite yet. Next week, we will look at Nevada women's basketball players at the professional level.
