Prior to signing with Ikaros, McAlarney briefly played for a professional team in the Israeli Superior League before heading back to America to play in the NBA Development League for the Springfield "Armor" and then the Fort Wayne "Mad Ants" (photo). Kyle averaged 11 points per game in his 43 games in the NBADL.
The Ikaros Esperos play out of Kalithea -- which is a suburb of Athens, Greece. Kyle scored 19 points in his debut with Ikaros -- and is currently averaging 13.9 points per game, seven games into the season (stats linked below).
This past year, Kyle was the subject of a controversial "Outside The Lines" segment on ESPN -- where they profiled the lack of "white" players in the NBA, see the link below. And to give you a little flavor of what professional basketball is like in Greece -- take a look at the link below to the riots in their Championship game this past season. Good Luck Kyle!
