After averaging 16 points for the Atlanta Hawks in the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, Palo Verde High grad Bryce Cotton chose to re-sign with the Perth Wildcats in Australia. Last season, Cotton was the MVP in the Australian pro league finals, scoring 45 points in the championship game before a crowd of 13,611 at the Perth Arena. He had a chance to sign with Spanish league power Unicaja Malaga, but at this point seems set to return to Australia for 2017-18.
