Jamar Smith in Japan

Jamar Smith (2002-04) will play the upcoming season for the Hitachi Sunrockers of Japan's JBL league. The team briefly announced his signing (translation), and his roster profile (translation) simply has this to say:

Utilizing the speed and weapons to play with big man to contribute to the team in rebounding and defense.

"We look forward to and start a new season with Hitachi. To win the championship, I would like to play hard. Thank you."

This is Smith's second time playing in Japan.  Back in 2007-08, he played for the Toshiba Brave Thunder.  He played in France last season and in Italy the two seasons prior to that.
