Matthew Bryan-Amaning is heading to Argentina after joining San Lorenzo for the remainder of the current season.

Last year, MBA moved to the Dominican Republic following the conclusion of the season in Mexico and picked up Defensive Player of the Year honours at Santo Domingo.

And, the 27-year-old is now looking forward to his next Latin American challenge in Liga A.

“I’m happy about signing in Argentina and helping a good organisation fight for another Championship,” he told Hoopsfix.

“The team had been following me all season and they had been waiting for the Mexican league to finish so they could offer me a job to help them claim a Championship.”

San Lorenzo are third in the South Conference of the LNA with a 29-23 record and finish the regular season this month ahead of the playoffs. Bryan-Amaning is looking to use the final few games of the campaign to settle ahead of the post-season.

“I believe I will use the last three or four games of the regular season to get acclimated into the team before the playoffs start,” he said.

Bryan-Amaning just completed a full season in Mexico and finished with averages of 17.3 points per game along with 6.5 rebounds in 57 appearances. Soles ended the season with a 4-3 defeat in the LNBP Finals.

“As a whole, my season was successful in Mexico,” he reflected.

“Statistically I performed at a high level with reduced minutes due to having a better overall team.

“And even though, winning four games in a seven game series but on paper not winning the Championship is frustrating, I’m proud of all my team-mates for still going out and competing.”

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
