has a magnificent painting. Very versatile player, must take advantage of their ability to play with his back to the basket in the low post and scoring around the average. You can also go to the high post to shoot from 4-5 feet, even if you have time can throw a triple. You may need to select better shots, so you should learn to read better game situations. It's fast know your height and take the ball to the ground to overwhelm the defenders. His intensity and physical strength will also become a good defender, can rebound with competence in both baskets and his ability to intimidate opponents clog. Has preferred test in Europe before trying to jump to the NBA, so expect a lot and good about this Lamont Hamilton ...

American
The pivot is the undisputed star of the team and, if physically fit, one of the great masters of the LEB League. Its impact on the game goes beyond statistics. The class that executes each of their shares has earned the respect of rivals. When no one is waiting out a glimpse of their quality, either scoring a triple, giving support without looking or dancing to their defense with the ball. Sometimes it seems to be really unstoppable. Despite playing power forward is capable of killing the opponent from afar, even from beyond 6.25, as it has a devastating shot but his technique is not too orthodox. Not a great defender but instead a great rebounder. Player also humble and unselfish on the court, to watch him play is a treat for the eyes. We'll see how you feel the change of scenery and overcome his injury last season ...
8 # Sotiris Manolopoulos : Greek power forward just 19 years old and 2.08 meters high, which is committed to the Inca Basketball for the next three seasons. International all categories below with the Greek national team, is considered one of the most promising in Europe, being a candidate to play in the Greek national team and come complete in the next NBA Draft. Manolopoulos was the captain of PAOK Thessaloniki, where he enjoyed just minutes. However, the explosion occurred at the end of last season, in the Play Offs against Olympiakos, scoring 11 points, 6 rebounds and 1 steal in 15 minutes he played.
In a few years will be talking about, because conditions for basketball has plenty. A versatile player, his position in principle would be "4", while still developing as a player and would be nothing strange to see him playing as "3" in a short time, even some do not rule out progress to end up playing escort. Their main problem now is his physique, little song for a player his size and, especially, little fit to compete at the highest level in the future. However, the track is a player as left over resources that can compensate for any physical deficiency, is smart, knows how to handle the ball, understands the game well and is a great perimeter shooter also able to move freely in the low post thanks his arms and his breadth of footwork. His physique, however, limits you a little when facing the basket in penetration. In defense has a lot of presence but lacks kilos to defend large, heavy poles and intensity and speed of movement to catch up with faster forwards. The good: has 19 years and work everything can be improved ...
11 # Franco Rocchi : young Italian-Argentine forward 21 years old and 1.92 meters tall that arrived to the Balearics this summer after passing through the CB Palencia of the LEB-2. Left the ranks of Club Náutico Zárate, already a junior became a promising figure of Argentine football, a fact which led to his arrival in Spain after being captured by the CB Leon (LEB) for their lower levels. Initially the team played for the University of León (EBA), a subsidiary of CB Leon, where credited a great progression as a player that allowed him to debut in the LEB with the first team. Last year he played in the CB Palencia (LEB-2).
is a player who stands by the intensity that shows on the track. It's smart, fight every ball and lacks self-confidence. At their height should adjust to playing in "2", a post he can do well, although their technical and gameplay also allow you to handle a "3." It has a good command of the ball and can penetrate to the basket effectively using their speed and jumping ability. In Leon worked hard to improve his shot, looking to make it less flat and more parable to describe, which has succeeded, so now it can also threaten from positions farther from the basket. A lot better defensively, facet which can "fajarse" with any overhang. It will be a major campaign for him.
