He was cut by the Blazers in 1972 as he decided not to stand for national anthem. He then headed to Europe and played for Olympiacos and Ignis Varèse. He helped Ignis Varèse to win the 1975 Euroleague title and played in two other finals in 1978 and 1979. He also won the 1978 Italian league title while in Varèse.
