Chase Budinger is now a professional beach volleyball player

Chase Budinger’s basketball career might be over, but he is just getting started in another sport.

The former Arizona Wildcat is now a professional beach volleyball player, partnering up with two-time Olympian Sean Rosenthal for the 2018 season and beyond.

Here’s what Carly DeMarque of VolleyMob.com wrote about the new duo:

Rosenthal is a two-time Olympian with 103 World Tour events and 20 medals under his belt, teaming up with some of the sports best – Phil Dalhausser, Jake Gibb and Theo Brunner. Making a move to a partner who is not a typical beach player is a high risk, high reward situation for Rosenthal, one that he thinks will work out in the end.
