Melbourne United has signed ex-NBA forward Josh Boone to a short term injury contract, the league's official website, nbl.com.au, has confirmed.
Boone, a former first round pick of the New Jersey Net, will be available when Melbourne plays Brisbane in an open-roof encounter on December 26. He replaces Olympian David Andersen and import Devin Williams, who both recently went down with knee injuries and both of whom will miss 3-6 weeks.
Boone has most recently spent time in Europe playing in Estonia and Turkey where he won the Estonian Cup with BC Kalev/Cramo Tallinn and was awarded MVP of the Cup Finals.
