Australian basketball legend Joe Ingles has one hell of an itch to scratch after joining Melbourne United on a two-year deal.
Ingles, whose Minnesota Timberwolves were knocked out in the NBA conference semi-finals last weekend, will return to the NBL next season after more than 800 NBA games over 12 years.
The move puts the five-time Olympian among the most decorated Australians ever to play in the NBL, alongside NBA championship winners Andrew Bogut and Matthew Dellavedova.
