Montrezl Harrell is back in the NBL, resigning with the Adelaide 36ers less than a week after the South Australian club pulled off the greatest coup in NBL history by signing free agent Bryce Cotton, Code Sports Basketball reports.
Code Sports Basketball revealed the 36ers "has inked the firebrand big man on a one-year extension, which sources said just needs league sign-off to be official".

The former NBA Sixth Man of the Year made the announcement in the only way that fits the firebrand's MO.
36ers General Manager of Basketball, Matt Weston, was thrilled to welcome Harrell back.
“Montrezl is a unique piece in the NBL with his size, power and overall skillset,” said Weston. “There’s nobody like him in this competition and we saw it first-hand last season, he’s hard to stop.”
Harrell joins recently signed import Bryce Cotton on the 36ers roster alongside DJ Vasiljevic, Isaac Humphries, Keanu Rasmussen, Ben Griscti, Isaac White, Michael Harris, Flynn Cameron and Matt Kenyon.
“We’ve really reworked our roster but Trez fits because of his unique skillset,” said 36ers Head Coach Mike Wells.
“His basketball IQ will allow us to play different ways. The player combinations with him involved will be difficult for teams to handle."
“Trez loved being part of the NBL and we’re excited to see what he can do and what we can achieve in NBL26.”
The 36ers now have one remaining roster spot to fill.
