Former NBA star Harrell eyeing off Adelaide return following suspension

Adelaide star Montrezl Harrell has sent an ominous warning to the rest of the League, confirming he will return following his three-game suspension.

Harrell headed back to the United States during the FIBA Break amid speculation he might not return if a sanction for his role in the melee and fan altercation during the game against Melbourne was lengthy.

Overnight, the former NBA sixth man of the year confirmed he would be coming back.

“Was feeling a lot (of) feelings wit’ the decision from NBL but at (the) end (of) the day I own it, respect it and take it on the chin,” Harrell said via X.

“But please keep all this hate when I get back DOWN UNDER because I’m (going to) make every one y’all regret that for real!”

Harrell doubled-down on Instagram.

“You best try kick us while we (are) down! You got till the 8th December good luck!” he said, referencing the final game of his suspension.

Harrell and Kendric Davis are both serving bans for their roles in incidents against Melbourne United on November 17.

Davis will miss two games, and return on December 8.
