Officially transferring to be closer to his daughter, who lives in Mass. Weren't we in the mix for him at some point?
"Naadir and I have talked numerous times since he's been here about his role and about his situation back home with his daughter," Self said. "He's told me many times how much he misses his little girl and she's had some health issues that has certainly made it difficult for him to be away from her for this extended period of time. She's doing very well now, but Naadir approached me after the season was over about him wanting to be closer to her. This is his decision to try and accomplish that."
