International basketball website Sportando is reporting that former Oakland University standout Reggie Hamilton has signed in Italy:

VL Pesaro announced the signing of Reggie Hamilton for the upcoming season. The rookie finished his NCAA career with Oakland Golden Grizzlies averaging 26.2ppg, 3.8rpg and 5.1apg as senior.

Italy has some of the best basketball in Europe, so Hamilton will be playing tough competition. Hamilton played briefly in the NBA Summer League before an ankle injury cut that experience short. His scoring ability is dynamic and if he’s able to refine his point guard skills overseas, he could get a NBA look again soon.
