On July 4, 2006, it was announced that Fuller had been signed by the South Dragons of the Australian National Basketball League to play in the team's inaugural season. At a press conference on October 23, 2006 it was announced that coach Mark Price and Fuller had both been released from the South Dragons. Price recruited Fuller as the team's first import player. Fuller averaged 18 points and 9 rebounds per game in his five games with the South Dragons, while shooting 63% from the floor and 70% from the free throw line.

Personal life

Fuller sponsors the annual mathematics competition for Raleigh, North Carolina area high school students through North Carolina State University called the "Todd Fuller Math Competition." He has a scholarship fund set up through the North Carolina State University Physical and Mathematical Sciences (PAMS) college.

Fuller is also known for his strong Christian beliefs including abstinence from sex before marriage. He lives in Charlotte with his wife, the former Elizabeth "Libby" Shaw, who is an elementary school teacher.

Fuller is a frequent global traveler for volunteer events. He participated in the Australian National Baptist Basketball Carnival – an annual youth sporting event held each year in Australia – during January 2008 in Tasmania. He spent three weeks in the Federated States of Micronesia in June 2008, on a volunteer mission to train basketball players to become coaches who in turn helped train islander youth. The team included Dr. Richard Dankworth of the University of the Nations, a frequent supporter of sports youth development in the South Pacific, and former professional basketball player David Wood.

Fuller has been serving on the Airport Advisory Committee for Charlotte-Douglas International Airport since 2008.
