On Thursday, Ryan Kelly and Real Betis faced Tenerife in the final regular season game already knowing that they had been relegated, losing 109-62. Ryan had 2 points in 13 minutes. O.D. Anosike had 11 points and 9 rebounds. In the win, ex-Notre Dame player Tim Abromaitis had 14 points, Tai Odiase, who decided to start his overseas career now, right after his senior season at Illinois-Chicago, had 12 points, and Fran Vazquez, the 11th pick of the Orlando Magic in 2005, had 11 points and 9 rebounds.

As seasons end around the world, it is time to look at the years of some of the players who started their careers at Duke before finishing them at other colleges. While they are not covered here on a regular basis, their seasons are recapped periodically.
Eric Boateng continued to play in France, dropping back down to the third tier with Sant Vallier. He contributed his usual play in the post as the team finished second, giving them the top seed in the playoffs, which would determine which team besides the winner would get promoted, but a shock loss in the first round kept them in the division.
