Eric Maynor: Signs with Italian club for 2016-17

Eric Maynor signed a one-year contract Tuesday with Pallacanestro Varese of the Italian Serie A Basketball League, international basketball writer David Pick reports.Maynor was the 20th overall pick in the 2009 NBA Draft, but the 6-foot-3 guard lasted only six years in the league, averaging 4.3 points and 2.8 assists over 14.6 minutes per game in his 267 career appearances with the Jazz, Thunder, Trail Blazers, Wizards and 76ers. The 29-year-old joined BC Nizhny Novgorod of the Russian VTB United League last season, but didn't play a single game after tearing his ACL. He'll try to reestablish himself with the Italian club, for whom he suited up with during the second half of the 2014-15 campaign.
