Ex-North Crowley star Willie Warren chases NBA dreams around the world and back | Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Willie Warren isn’t who he once was, which, according to the former North Crowley standout, is a good thing.

Now 28, Warren recently signed with the Mavericks’ NBA G-League affiliate, the Texas Legends.

A second-round pick of the Los Angeles Clippers in the 2010 NBA Draft, Warren played 19 games for the Clippers before venturing abroad.

But before making his Legends debut February 23 against Northern Arizona, where he had 10 points, seven assists, four rebounds and two blocks in 23 minutes, he had played in Israel, Hungary, Italy, China and Iran. When he hit the floor at Frisco’s Dr Pepper Arena last weekend, it was his first time playing stateside since 2012.
