ITALY - Dwayne Davis Jr. in Jesi, Phil Greene IV in Tortona, Jaye Crockett in Forlì and Laurence Bowers in Ferrara! Our four aces...
Three games into the League in Italy, our four american players are delivering amazing individual and team results.
Let's start to Dwayne Davis Jr., nothing but a scoring machine in Jesi. He's having fun in turning all the pre-season ranking upside-down bringing the predicted last-place Jesi team to a 3-0 record on top of Eastern division after three games. His contribution speaks loud: 25.3 points per game, 4.3 rebounds and 2.7 assist.
Phil Greene IV is the king of intangibles in Tortona. With his game of energy, movement on and off the ball, lockdown defense and unselfish actions his team is undefeated on top of the Western division. Yes, there's a lot of intangibles in his game but also 18.3ppg shooting 42% from three... amazing!
Jaye Crockett is bringing the game above the rim in Forlì, for the newly promoted Unieuro Forlì (in B series last year) now with a 2-1 winning record. Impressive 18.7 points per game shooting 68% from the field and 90% from free throws... well, add 9.3 rebounds per game too. Dominant force.
Last but not least Mr.Laurence Bowers for Bondi Ferrara. His game is a perfect mix of technical skills, physical power, elevation and shooting touch. Difficult to explain... or maybe easy if you look at his box score in last Ferrara game, a 95-72 win over Roseto. 36 points, 15-for-19 from the field, 13 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals. CA-PO-LA-VO-RO. Is the italian word for MASTERPIECE!
