Singler comfortable in Europe: NBA prospect Kyle Singler said he has no regrets over his decision to spurn the Detroit Pistons to play basketball in Europe. The Real Madrid forward, selected by Detroit with the 33rd pick in the second round of the draft, is one of the few players who didn’t return after the NBA lockout ended. The former Duke star felt pressured from the Pistons to come back, but he preferred to stay in Spain and hone his skills. “I knew they were upset, a little disappointed. The bottom line was that I was a little selfish, I wanted the best for myself, I wanted to be happy,” Singler told The Associated Press. (Updated 01/27/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
Singler first joined Spanish club Lucentum Alicante for the duration of the lockout, and moved to Madrid on a one-year deal rather than go to Detroit after the new CBA was signed. Singler is currently averaging 14.4 points for the Spanish league leaders. "This whole experience opens your eyes a little bit, especially being out of the States and over here, it’s a breath of fresh air,” Singler said. He also mentioned the possibility of returning to the NBA next season, but for now, he should not be considered a worthwhile Fantasy option. (Updated 01/27/2012).
