He also played 4 games in Balkan League where he got 13.5ppg, 1.8rpg, 3.5apg and 1.0spg.
Ragland has tried to make it to the NBA and played in the NBA Pro Summer League in 2012.
He is quite experienced player. Ragland has played also professionally in Italy (Milano, Cantu and Avellino), Russia (Lokomotiv), Serbia (Crvena Zvezda), Spain (Murcia) and Turkey (Pinar Karsiyaka and Dacka).
He graduated from Wichita State in 2012 and it will be his eleventh (!!!) season as a professional player.
The scouts decsribe him following way: A super quick and energic combo guard player. Ragland's a very good outside shooter and scorer, his powerful body enables him to be very effective at the defensive side too. Great upside, even at Euroleage level.
