FAYETTEVILLE — Former Arkansas All-SEC standout Moses Kingsley has signed a professional contract to play for the Antwerp Giants in Belgium.
Kingsley landed in Belgium on Saturday and the club announced his arrival as the team’s starting center for the 2017-18 season.
He played for the Minnesota Timberwolves during the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas before signing to play in Belgium.
The Abuja, Nigeria, native finished his collegiate career with 1,200 points, good for 25th on Arkansas’ all-time list of leading scorers.
He became one of the most versatile big men to ever wear an Arkansas uniform and stands alone with Razorback legend Oliver Miller as the only players to reach 1,000 points, 600 rebounds and 200 blocks.
He finished with 24 double-doubles during his four-year career and his 256 blocks are good for the third-most in program history. His 93 blocks as a senior also marks the third-highest total for a single season as a Razorback.
Kingsley helped lead Arkansas to the seventh-most wins in program history in 2016-17 with a record of 26-10 that included a trip to the SEC Tournament championship game and the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
