With his NBA chances dwindling and his girlfriend and daughter still at home in Columbus, former Ohio State standout Terence Dials set out last August to start his professional basketball career in a city outside Paris, France called Orleans.

After a successful first season that saw Dials land on the French league's all-star team, he returned to Columbus in late May to resume his quest to make the NBA.

He eventually signed with the Cleveland Cavaliers' summer league team in Las Vegas, although he's struggled to get playing time, averaging just three minutes per contest through the first four games.

"It's kind of frustrating," said Dials. "The reason I picked this team was because they didn't have any big guys coming to camp, but at the last minute two guys signed on and they've been getting all the minutes.

Dials actually stayed up and watched almost every Buckeye game last season on his computer (France is six hours ahead of the Eastern Time Zone) and was happy to see his team's success following his graduation.

"They were a little overmatched against Florida, but overall they had a great year," he said. "I didn't know a lot of the new guys, but I was really happy for the coaching staff. Those guys work so hard and they deserved the success."

It was a Buckeye reunion yesterday in Oldenburg, Germany as Terence Dials & Matt Terwilliger of Paderborn Baskets faced off against Je'Kel Foster and EWE Baskets Oldenburg.

The defending German Champions defeated Paderborn Baskets by a score 74-55.

Terence Dials, the big man out of Youngstown, Ohio played well. He led Paderborn with 18 points, a perfect 8/8 from the field with 6 rebounds.

Matt Terwilliger scored 4 points and grabbed a couple rebounds in about 16 minutes of play.

Je'Kel Foster had 11 points, 4 assists, & 4 steals for Oldenburg.

European Basketball Main Page - EUROBASKET

EWE Baskets Oldenburg is now near the top of the BBL standings at 6-2, Paderborn falls to 1-8 in this league which is good for last place. (ouch)

Oldenburg plays in the German League, as well the Euroleague. They are currently 1-3 in the Euroleague. They had a bye last week, but on the November 25th they will play the best team in Europe, Panathinaikos of Greece.

It came out last week that Dials actually will not play for JL Bourg.

Big TD was overseas from late May to early August playing in the Chinese NBL. His last playoff game in China was on August 10, and the French club wanted him to fly out like a week & a half later to prepare for the early fall preseason. Terence did not show so that agreement is over. (we're guessing rest & family time was more important than the 'all-world' level of preseason basketball in France)

TD averaged 21 pts & 11 rebounds in China - short clip of Dial's NBL into in late May..rest up big fella :)
