Veteran scoring standout John "Helicopter" Humphrey arrived in Fukuoka on Monday to join the bj-league's Rizing Fukuoka, a league source told The Japan Times.
The four-time bj-league season scoring champion (2005-06, 2006-07, 2012-13 and 2013-14) will reunite with Fukuoka coach Joe Bryant, his former Tokyo Apache bench boss (2005-09) and nine-time All-Star guard Cohey Aoki, another of the now-defunct Apache's iconic players.
The 34-year-old Humphrey, a Middle Tennessee State product, is one the bj-league's enduring stars and one of the most popular players in league history.
