International Notes: Wright, Aminu

Yesterday, it was reported that Heat big man Jarvis Varnado is nearing agreement with Italian club Sidigas Avellino.  Varnado has a non-guaranteed deal with the Heat for 2013/14 and if the club only carries 13 players, he won't have a spot on the roster.   Here's today's news from around the globe..

  • Former NBA player Antoine Wright has been looking to make an NBA comeback, but he'll instead join Israel's Gilboa Galil, a source tells RealGM's Shams Charania (via Twitter).  Back in April, the former No. 15 overall pick hooked on with Venezuelan club Gualqueries de Margarita.  The 28-year-old also had a stint in the D-League to attract attention from the Association.
  • Raptors summer league forward Alade Aminu has reached agreement on a one-year deal to return to Pinar Karsiyaka of the Eurocup league, a source told Charania.  Aminu, the older brother of Al-Farouq Aminu, played with the Turkish club last season and was also pursued by clubs in Spain, Italy and China.  The 25-year-old is not expected to accept summer league invitations next year.
