Former All-American Purdue forward Robbie Hummel will play for a professional team in Spain during the upcoming season.
Hummel announced Wednesday that he agreed to terms with El Obradoiro, which plays in the top Spanish professional league.
Hummel opted to play overseas instead compete for a roster spot with the Minnesota Timberwolves this fall. Minnesota selected the former Boilermaker in the second round with the 58th overall pick during the NBA Draft earlier this summer.
As a senior last season at Purdue, Hummel returned to the court after missing the 2010-11 season because of a torn anterior cruciate ligament and led the Boilermakers to the NCAA Tournament. The forward also averaged 16.4 points per game and 7.2 rebounds per game in his final college season to earn AP All-American honorable mention honors for the second time in his career.
In addition, Hummel ended his college career in Purdue's top 10 all-time for career points, rebounds, three-pointers and minutes played.
Obradoiro finished last season 13-21 -- its first season in the Spanish top-tier league after being promoted from the second tier.
