Former Badger Tyler Wahl has signed a contract to play overseas with Croatian basketball team KK Zadar, the league announced.

Wahl, who had workouts with the Milwaukee Bucks and Utah Jazz before going undrafted and landing with the Minnesota Timberwolves Summer League team, will put his NBA dreams on hold for the time being and play in the Adriatic Basketball Association. His contract is for one-year.

Wahl played for Wisconsin for five seasons averaging 8.4 points, 4.9 boards and 1.7 assists in his 160+ games there. He'll now follow a similar path to other former Badgers and try his hand playing basketball overseas.

This leaves Micah Potter and Johnny Davis as the only two former Badgers currently playing in the NBA.
