Cole Departs Basketball Africa League Due to ‘Family Obligation’.

ESPN reports that J.

Cole’s professional basketball career is done, at least for now.

.

Sources confirm that Cole has departed Rwanda and returned home due to “family obligation.” .

His contractual obligations to the Basketball Africa League (BAL) have reportedly been completed.

.

Cole has been playing in the league on the Rwanda Patriots team since its inauguration on May 16.

He played a little over 45 minutes in three preliminary games, putting up a total of five points, three assists and five rebounds.

.

Although Cole brought the BAL a lot of extra publicity, not all players welcomed his involvement.

.

Terrell Stoglin, guard for Morocco AS Salé, called Cole’s involvement in the league “disrespectful.”.

For a guy who has so much money and has another career to just come here and average, like, one point a game and still get glorified is very disrespectful to the game.

It’s disrespectful to the ones who sacrificed their whole lives for this, Terrell Stoglin, via ESPN
