    • Former NBA player Josh Childress was playing with the Sydney Kings before an injury forced him out of action. Harrington was signed as a replacement for the injured Childress for a critical stretch of the 2015/16 NBL season.

    Just like in Denver, Harrington became a fan favorite in Sydney, and posted stats of 17.7 points and 6.8 rebounds during his short, six game stint in the league.

    Nowadays, Harrington is involved in the inaugural season of the Champions Basketball League, a competition that aims to fill the hole between NBA seasons and pit former NBA players against each other during a season that lasts approximately 30 games.

    Harrington, along with former NBA players, Rasheed Wallace and Maurice Ager, will be playing for New York in the upcoming Champions Basketball League season.

    So, while Harrington’s NBA career is now long over, like so many, his love for the game will keep him around it seemingly forever.
