in principle should be the team's starting base. Player of absolute confidence of the coach Alejandro Martínez, under whose leadership has reached the level of play and the maturity necessary to make the jump to the LEB. It has ball handling and ability to read parties and always control the tempo of his team, both static and when to run.

From the position of playmaker is able to play and play to their peers. His speed and style of play makes the pace of the match is almost always high, but also knows put the pause at the right time.

should be the benchmark in the game outside of the box aurinegro. It is a "3" fit and who has a great offensive talent, especially when scoring from beyond the line of 6.25. It also has resources for noting 1x1 penetration after playing against his defender, can play even in the low post against smaller defenders. Has improved over the place defensively, that was one of the areas in which slackened a little, and always a great help towards the rebound.

Another player in the house, is a forward who, with talent and labor, has been making a hole in your computer. Your coach will use in times when the team needs an extra pace and intensity of the game. Player is not free of technical quality, outstanding especially for the honor and the claw prints to their actions. In defense makes a tireless work on their participation, while in direct plays close attack, if it's run, could harm a rival. It has a good outside shooting wrist and great ability to penetrate to the basket.

The following year he played for the Capitals Groningen (05/06), Holland, to return to Austria last season and defend the colors of the BSC Furstenfeld, where he averaged 20.9 points and 3.2 rebounds.

One of the great revelations of the season. This is a very complete and versatile player capable of playing both "2" as "3." Noted for its quick movements with the ball in his hands, which make him lethal in one on one. He also knows 'constructed' their own shots, both medium and long distance, even knows how to move a great time playing the low post, so you should be very aware of their progress. Also turns out to be a tireless advocate, able to catch up with rival star smoothly even can defend bases thanks to its rapid speed of his legs and hands.

His performance in the LEB Gold was a question that Donaldson was in charge of clearing away, so now one of the best "4" of the competition. Has an enormous physical strength and elasticity that make him a very active player while on the track, where you can capture a lot of rebounds, intimidate rivals with its easy to plug and record with consistency, especially after receiving the post on or after offensive rebound. Has gradually improved his shot 4 -5 feet, occasionally even ventures into a triple, while his favorite play is to take place in the area and crush the rival basket.

Then came two seasons (04/06) in the ranks of Celso Miguez before committing to the Canaries this season CB 06/07, being considered the best national player of the LEB-2 and one of the architects of the rise of equipment.

is a "pivot" quite unusual, as it can play in the paint as a "5" and do damage from the perimeter like a "3." It has very good moves in the indoor game, where you can write or draw fouls his defender. However, the image that is often left in their fans is the triple front, which messes with astonishing ease both out to get open as coming in transition. It is also a good defender with great ability to rebound in both baskets, and even occasionally 'gifts' to their rivals in colorful caps. Smart while effective, has not stopped improving in recent seasons despite no longer a kid ...

Although usually leave more than once in the starting lineup of Alejandro Martinez, the truth is that it ceases to be a rotation player with a very defined role within the team play schemes. This is a pivot point of honor in all grit and defensive play, which can make life difficult for the couple to their mobility and ability to anticipate. On offense has the resources to play close to goal, if it does not occur very often in the face to the basket. Has conditions keep improving, so this season in LEB will be important for him in all aspects ...

is a team player who knows how to assume its role without problems, whether you have to leave home as if I have to start on the bench. This is a pivot that, despite its height, the area known fajarse against larger rivals, both in attack and defense. Looking to the ring not have a wide repertoire of movements, although it is effectively playing the low post because of his game feet and his good hand from 3-4 meters. Plays well without the ball in situations of high post-low post. Their strength allows you to fight for every rebound, especially in attack, and is a qualified advocate (is hard and makes good use of the body).

11 # Airam Marrero : Tenerife power forward 26 years old and 2.00 meters high, has played his entire life in the whole aurinegro, since this is a player formed in categories Club below. BC has played in both League Canary EBA (99/02) and the LEB-2 (02/07) before making his debut this season in the LEB Gold. He is the captain of the team and the player who symbolizes the recent history of the club Canar.

is a pivot that is clear what their role within the team and always do what it asked. Will have few minutes, usually when the parties are already determined, but he will jump onto the field and give it all as if nothing decided. In defense performs with great intensity despite its limitations, while in attack has a good outside shot, including triple, so it is helpful to open up defenses.

is a pure small forward, whose greatest virtue is his ability to score from outside positions, especially from beyond the line of 6.25, an aspect which was among the most prominent Hellenic championship. Like all accomplished shooter, its efficiency goes in spurts, if you can shatter on any defense, but if you enter becomes a hindrance to its peers.

GAME INSIDE:

Ocupará una de las plazas de extracomunitario

Es la primera vez que juega en una liga profesional, por lo que su rendimiento siempre es una incógnita. Se trata de un jugador muy versátil, ya que puede actuar de “4” (su posición natural) o incluso de “5” thanks to his powerful physique. It is an extraordinary athlete, resulting in a tremendous jumping ability and power of intimidation on the boards (great specialist in caps). His game is colorful and spectacular in the eyes of the fans (you can kill stratospheric), although not always effective and practical for collective performance.

In 2005 he joined the ranks of Pamesa Valencia, where he has been playing regularly in the EBA, but has played three games in the ACB League Table 'grapefruit'. It

considered one of the most promising pivots of our basketball, so its signing by a team of LEB is to be understood as an opportunity to grow as a player. It has an imposing physique, but lacks size for your height, which makes him a great rebounder and a danger playing the low post, where it is able to make enough space to score. As the ring moves away their shares fall significantly, besides being a lousy free-throw shooter. In defense must work to be a consistent player, but his presence alone is already an intimidation factor for the opponent. An injury kept him sidelined for the first league matches, while has recovered well and has become, after the departure of Edwards, one of the first choices of coach for the indoor game.

It is an experienced power forward with versatility to play both "5" as "4" and plays an especially important role in the dressing room, making it one of the trusted men of Félix Muñoz. Has size and physical presence, which makes him a player with power to intimidate and good rebounding ability. Without being a great shooter, if it has improved significantly in this aspect over the years. It has a definite role to fulfill to the letter.

pivot is a talented and good manners, both of which seek to demonstrate also in LEB. It is a very complete player, both in defense and attack, so you should become one of the leaders of the squad for this season. On offense knows very well win the position in the low post and has good hand to pull to 4-5 meters from the ring, being a consistent scorer. It is also an excellent defender, capable of supporting 1x1 to rival the larger and heavier. There's plenty of anticipation and instinct to go for the rebound on both boards. Sometimes you lose the urge to want to do many things and show their true worth, so it should be used more 'coolness' to display all his talents ...

Accepting the July 25, 1994 to address the invitation and therefore payment for Alicante to compete that season in the Division of National Basketball Plata, known as the EBA League, created the first professional team Lucentum.
Problems
geographical distribution of all EBA teams among four groups, we do compete in the so-called "Southern Conference" (Andalusia, Canary Islands), away from a natural geographic framework for the positioning of our city and the consequent increase expenses for travel, as had been the inclusion in the "Eastern Conference." From the beginning it was an important company from Alicante "Ernesto Appliances" which continued as a sponsor of the club, ready to financially support the sports project. However, all our sports and economic constraints were overcome to get outside Alicante making its way into the national basketball scene, both sporting merit as for their behavior on and off the slopes. Sporting, overflowed the most optimistic forecasts, the interest of the city of Alicante for basketball, the media and the authorities was increasing, to get the city to overturn the team (the Pavilion was packed in three play-off games). It managed to reach the Final of the EBA League, held in Gijón from 3 to June 5, 1995, to reach the semifinal for promotion ACB. The dream could not realize, at the last second and was lost by one point against the host team. But Alicante, nevertheless, was the big winner in the sector.

Alicante Club wins the sympathy of technicians, managers and fans displaced Gijón, recognized as the Club for best picture and best game practiced.

BASES:


4 # Josh Fisher : U.S. base (born in Washington) 27 years old and 1.89 meters tall. It takes no extra space as it is a English citizen. He trained as a player at the University of St. Louis (NCAA), where he completed the four-year cycle (00/04). In 2004 he received an invitation to play the summer league ended Inca and signed for Pamesa Castellón (LEB-2), related equipment Pamesa Valencia, even got to play two games in the ACB. Season.

Last season he joined the ranks of Lucentum Alicante (ACB), the team faced its second season.

will be the team's starting base Alicante. Stands for the intensity and aggressiveness he gives to his game, making him a difficult player to beat on defense, where he also is encouraged by the power of his legs, allowing you to consistently above its pair. Has good ball handling and vision, has speed to run the counter and have to drive to the basket as effectively. Its biggest flaw is perhaps his shot from the perimeter, a circumstance which undercuts a greater role in their offensive team, but that does not mean that sometimes can not write triples with good percentages.


18 # Stephane Dumas : French base 29 years old and 1.92 meters tall that Lucentum reached after passing through the CB Leon. Having started playing in the Toulon-Hyeres (95/96) was signed by CSP Limoges, the computer on which he played for four seasons (96/00) and which was league champion and the Korac Cup. In 2000 landed in the English basketball to play Joventut Badalona (00/02). His next station in the ACB was the Caprabo Forum Valladolid and Lleida (02/03), again Joventut Badalona (03/04) and finally the Casademont Girona (04/05). During the year 05/06, a few months after playing in the Italian Air Avellino, was hired in February by the CB Leon (LEB), team with which he repeated last year.

must be the basis Lucentum alternate, but that does not mean you can not take a leading role during a game. It is above all a team player, able to contribute experience and "know to be 'on the track. His versatility may allow you to play too "2" at any given time. It has an impeccable ball control and ability to set the pace of play that suits at all times, knows how to use his speed to get the counter and put the pause when you play static. Although not lavish much on the shot, is a player capable of scoring in triple penetration or launching frontal position after a crash. In defense applies because of its physical intensity, although not exactly his strong point ...



PERIMETER:


19 # Lucio Angulo : Zaragoza forward 34 years old and 1.98 meters high facing its fifth season in the ranks of Lucentum Alicante. Formed in the lower categories of CB Zaragoza. Later (92/93 season) was loaned to Canned Daroca (1 ª Division B), debuting in the ACB with Argal Huesca in 93/94. From 1994 to 1996 played in the Amway Zaragoza (ACB), joining in 1996 by the TAU Victoria ACB). In Alava all played until the end of the 98/99 season. Subsequently ended up in the Real Madrid (ACB), which again coincided with his brother Alberto. After passing through the target set in the 03/04 season he transferred to Etos Alicante (ACB), the club he has played so far in the NCAA today. He has been capped 49 times by selecting English.

One of the leaders of the English basketball in the last two decades. Above all is a great professional, a player who gives the team more than his numbers indicate statistical. Excellent defender (possibly his best virtue), is complicated by its ability to overtake lateral movements, to which we must add to read the game and anticipation in the passing, qualities that allow you to recover many balls. In attack is more limited, although he knows otherwise get to the basket through effectively ending insights, while his perimeter shot, without being bad, is not a major threat to opposing teams, so do not abuse it.


5 # Alain Digbeu : French forward 31 years old and 2.01 meters high playing his third season in Alicante land. He began his career in the modest cestista Vénissieux (94/95), where he started in Asvel Villeurbanne (95/99). In the 99/00 season came to Spain to play in the ACB with FC Barcelona for three seasons. Then he spent a year at Real Madrid (02/03) and another in the DKV Joventut (03/04) before joining Italian basketball (Casti Group Varese) in MY 04/05. That campaign was finished playing with the ethos Alicante, where he has played to date, Although last season ended it on loan at Bologna Climanio Italian. A full international for France.

One of the 'stars' in the league, at least if we look at his career cestista. This is a wing equipped with a fantastic physical condition, making it a spectacular player in many of their actions, especially their mates. It is an impulsive and dynamic player, with offensive fundamentals rather scarce, but can score easily triple. In defense is all a wonder, that would cause the opposing team's offensive reference to his intensity and aggressiveness, helped also by his physique. A 'SUV' that if it is proposed, can make a difference in the LEB ...


14 # Axel Weigand : Argentine forward 22 years old and 2.02 meters high facing his fourth season in the ranks of Alicante. It has an Italian passport, so it will not take up extra space. After playing three seasons in the Argentine Boca Juniors (01/04), arrived in Spain in the 04/05 season then hired by the ACB Etos Alicante, where the team has played to date.

is a forward who was considered one of the most promising Argentine basketball, but has never finished to confirm the conditions you assume. For its versatility can accommodate both the position of "3" as to "4." Has physical and ways to become a great player, but lacks confidence and mature in some aspects of his game. In defense has conditions to do a great job, it may even be helpful in the rebound, while more work needs to attack his shot from a distance. Will have to earn minutes on the track, because in his position the competition is great ...


10 # Pat Carroll : American forward (born in Horsham, Pennsylvania) 24 years old and 1.98 meters high, has reached Lucentum few weeks ago to replace the injured Bennerman.

In 2005 he took part in the Minnesota Summer League with the Houston Rockets (NBA), but ended up playing in Italy, particularly in the Noi Sport Monte Terminillo Rieti. In the 06/07 season was signed by the Dallas Mavericks (NBA), but a few months was 'cut' and stayed in Europe again, this time from the BCM Gravelines Dunkerque hand of France, where he averaged 8.9 points and 2.8 rebounds. This season began in Cajasol Seville (ACB), until he left the team makes a conference. He is the brother of Matt Carroll, Charlotte Bobcats forward from.

His arrival a few weeks ago to set Alicante has been quite a 'blessing' for Quim Costa, as Carroll has quickly become a major threat to rivals from the perimeter. Left-hander, is primarily a specialist in the overseas launch, especially from beyond the three point line, the side who can score with good percentages. Never shake hands, and is the ideal player to gamble at times of maximum pressure. Complete player, also has good defensive fundamentals, where able to retrieve balls and lend a hand on the rebound. If you're fit, can be destabilizing ...



INSIDE GAME:


8 # Nick George : English power forward 25 years old and 2.02 meters high facing his first season in the team Alicante. After military for four years (02/06) at the University of Virginia Rams (NCAA), after last year played the prestigious Portsmouth Invitational Tournament and Summer League in Las Vegas with the Golden State Warriors NBA). Last season he played in two teams from Italy, first at Benetton Treviso (A-1) and then the Zarotti Imola (A-2).

is a "4" of great physical strength to be provided to current and power equipment game Alicante. Best exploited the conditions when you can run, because the game is going fast on their way to understand the game and physical condition. In this sense, it can also play as a classic small forward, possibly his ideal position. Defense is hard on the brand, which can defend both forwards and men larger, has a nose for rebounds and can also clog up the opponent's shots, while the attack is an active player and makes good use of its cash shot to 4-5 meters. Without holding it will be important in rotations Costa ...


11 # Keith Waleskowski : pivot American (born in Dayton) of 2.03 meters and 25 years of age. This summer has a German passport, so that will not take extra space. He trained as a player in Dayton University (NCAA), where he worked between 1999 and 2003. Before landing in Spain was playing in summer leagues with the Utah Jazz (NBA), which already showed good manners. In the 04/06 season he signed for Fahr Heaters Gijón (LEB), and after becoming one of the revelations in the league, was hired by the PW Murcia (LEB), where an injury prevented him from offering his real level. After recovering, last season was rehired by Fahr Gijón (LEB), which again claimed a high level player in this league.


pivot is a lefty who is one of the clear references in the game Alicante. And is that without being a mega star, Waleskowski is a player who makes a difference in the LEB League thanks to his intelligence and his knowledge of the category. And that is not an individual player, rather the opposite: it is a team player who works at the track looking out for his team. Without being physically strong, can impose his rebounding ability in both areas and is an advocate hard and intense. In attack it resolvent in positions close to the basket thanks to his good offensive moves, but also record from 4-5 feet with ease, and even not uncommon to see a triple marked.


15 # Taylor Coppenrath : pivot American (born in Vermont) to 26 years old and 2.06 meters high.

His first professional experience was spent in the Greek AEK Athens (05/06), while last season he played in the ranks of Angelico Biella (A-1) Italian.

a pivot is not very high but very bulky, allowing you to use with toughness in the paint when defending bigger opponents (is strong and good athletic ability), which makes them very difficult to overtake. Blocks very well rebound in both baskets, can play back the ring and brings intelligence and balance to the indoor game Alicante. Up front is a player 'generous' with their peers, able to play open and use a good doll middle and long distance, making it a versatile interior, capable of playing "4" or even false " 3 ". He also knows penetrate using their physical strength. It has no the "name" of others, but it sure is a great boost for the team Quim Costa ...


16 # Henk Norel : Dutch young center 20 years old and 2.11 meters high this summer has arrived on loan from Lucentum DKV Joventut.

Last season continued alternating both categories, whereas face to this season DKV Joventut has chosen to cede to Lucentum Alicante to continue maturing as a player.

This is one of the most promising European basketball medium term. Despite his height has a good coordination in their movements and boasts a carefully crafted offensive fundamentals. He likes to play with intensity and almost never make bad decisions, which make it an effective and regular player in your game. Although it lacks the body to fight with bulkier pivots, likes to play hard and does not wrinkle to anyone. Is easy to learn and it allows you to improve throughout the season.


7 # Martynas Andriuskevicius : Lithuanian young center 21 years old and 2.18 meters high facing his first year in the ranks of Lucentum.

In December 2006, suffered serious head injuries after a punch of his teammate Awvee Storey in training. Fortunately, he recovered and returned to the court within a short period of time. This season has returned to Europe to play in the LEB with Lucentum.

In his junior season was considered one of the most promising players in European basketball, both for height and for his enormous talent. It has a great foundation for offensive play, which is able to post or shoot from positions away from the ring and knows to throw the ball up the floor or pass with good vision. In defense intimidates opponents with his mere presence, as its endless arms reach to tap any shot. Know how to defend and has no trouble closing the rebound. If you are physically well, and if your mindset for the game is adequate, can become a player capable of differentiating in the minutes that is on track. It will be an important season for their future, and you need reunited as a basketball player ...
