Pongo lo que he puesto en el HOFCB tambien aquí, nuestro Olaseni no se detiene ante nada.
Hoy, The Basketball Tournament, mañana el Afrobasket y pasado... el MUNDO.
Hace unos días tambien supimos que:
ABUJA (AfroBasket 2015) - Nigeria's newly-appointed head coach Will Voigt announced his 26-player preliminary squad on Tuesday in Abuja, and Olaseni 'Shane' Lawal could make his national team debut at AfroBasket 2015.
The 2.08m center is among a list of big names in the Nigerian squad that includes Ike Diogu, Portland Trail Blazers new recruit Al Farouq Aminu and former Los Angeles Clippers forward Ekpe Udoh.
http://www.fiba.com/news/lawal-included ... asket-2015A thorough look at Voigt's selections, and it becomes clear that the Western Africans have several options when it comes to their big men. Despite his poor free-throw percentage (50 percent), Lawal looks to be a realistic pick for the American coach.
This past season, Lawal was so good that his performances could not go unnoticed, after he helped his Banco di Sardegna team win three major domestic trophies, including Cup of Italy, Supercup and Lega Basket Serie A title.
The Nigerian-American averaged 9.5 points and 10 rebounds in 47 league games and has just signed a two-year with Spain’s giants FC Barcelona.
