Amar'e Stoudemire: Heading to EuroLeague
Stoudemire signed a one-year contract Wednesday with Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv, Eurohoops.net reports.
Stoudemire's last NBA action came in the 2015-16 season with the Heat, but the six-time All-Star has continued to keep his career going abroad the last four years. After stints with Hapoel Jerusalem in the Israeli League and the Fujian Sturgeons of the Chinese Basketball Association, Stoudemire will head to the EuroLeague for the first time. The 37-year-old is presumably hoping to parlay a strong showing with Maccabi Tel Aviv into a second act in the NBA, though that's likely a longshot at this point.

Amar'e Stoudemire: Still pursuing NBA job
Stoudemire has returned to the United States following a stint in China and is working out in hopes of playing his way onto an NBA roster, Mark Stein of The New York Times reports.
Stoudemire was also pursuing an NBA comeback in July, but he was unable to find a suitor. At age 37, any role Stoudemire would find himself in at the NBA level would presumably be minor.

Amar'e Stoudemire: Pursuing NBA comeback
Stoudemire worked out for approximately 12 NBA teams in Las Vegas on Monday as he looks to pursue a return to North America, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.
Stoudemire, 36, hasn't appeared in the NBA since the 2015-16 and announced his retirement from the league three summers ago and continued his playing career in Israel. The six-time All-Star previously entertained a return to the NBA in February 2018 while taking part in the BIG3, but never gained any serious traction in those efforts. The audition in Las Vegas may represent Stoudemire's last chance to resurface at the NBA level, though it's unclear if he impressed teams enough in the workout to earn even a training-camp invitation.

Amar'e Stoudemire: Keeping playing career alive
Stoudemire announced Sunday that he would come out of retirement and re-sign with Israeli Premier League club Hapoel Jerusalem B.C., according to freelance international reporter David Pick.
The deal is contingent on Stoudemire not receiving a contract offer from an NBA team, but it's difficult to imagine the six-time All-Star heading back stateside now that he's 35 years old and more than two years removed from his last appearance in the league. The veteran center, who is expected to play in the BIG3 league this summer, has an ownership stake in Hapoel Jerusalem and helped lead the club to an Israeli League championship in his lone season with the team in 2016-17.
