Chris Wright leaves Bucks to sign overseas

Milwaukee Bucks forward Chris Wright has left the team to sign a professional contract overseas, coach Jason Kidd said after practice Monday.

Since the deal is not yet official, the team Wright is signing with is unknown. According to a report from EuroBasket late last week, the Greek club Panathinaikos was interested in adding Wright.

With 16 players competing for 15 spots, Wright was likely the odd man out with the Bucks.
