Former Clemson center
Landry Nnoko returned to the NBA G League recently with Ignite, out of the Las Vegas area.
Nnoko last played in the G League with the Grand Rapids Drive in the 2017-18 season, and he's gone on an international tour since. Nnoko made the ACC's all-defensive team as a senior and led the league in blocks. He was a three-year starter with the Tigers. Since that run, he has played in Italy (Victoria Libertas Pesaro), Turkey (Sakarya BB), Germany (Alba Berlin), Serbia (Crvena zvezda), Spain (Saski Baskonia and San Pablo Burgos) and South Korea (Suwon KT Sonicboom). Nnoko averaged 5.7 points and 5.2 rebounds in South Korea last season. Nnoko was named the MVP of the ABA Liga League Playoffs when he averaged 15.6 points and scored 17 points and grabbed 12 rebounds in one performance. He scored four points over 12 minutes with four rebounds in his G League debut this season.
