A former 2023-24 Los Angeles small forward has ditched the world's top basketball league. For now.
Former 2023-24 Los Angeles Lakers small forward Dylan Windler has latched on with his next pro hoops destination — and it's not an NBA squad., the 6-foot-6 wing has signed a one-year agreement with the Perth Wildcats of Australia's National Basketball League.
As a free agent in 2023, Windler struggled to find a 15-man standard roster to call home. Subsequently, he inked a two-way deal with the New York Knicks — only to impress the Knicks' front office brass enough that he saw his contract converted to a standard deal heading into the 2023-24 season. It wouldn't last, however, as Windler was cut in December, only to be picked up by New York's NBA G League affiliate, the Westchester Knicks.
Across 101 NBA regular season games , Windler logged averages of 3.2 points while slashing .425/.347/.800, 2.1 boards, 0.8 dimes and 0.4 swipes a night.
