DeAndre Daniels to sign in Australia with Perth Wildcats

The Perth Wildcats are on the verge of replacing former draftee James Ennis with second-round NBA Draft pick DeAndre Daniels.

Per Yahoo, Daniels was taken at pick No.37 overall in this year's NBA draft by Toronto, who are understood to be eager to send the small forward overseas to gain much-needed playing time.

Daniels was a key part of the University of Connecticut's 2013-14 NCAA championship team, averaging 16 points and seven rebounds a game.

In five NBA Summer League games for Toronto, Daniels averaged 10 points and six rebounds.

The 22-year-old, from Los Angeles, will likely sign a season-long deal with the Wildcats.
