BELL SOUNDS AT PLYMOUTH
Plymouth Raiders have signed the reigning British Basketball League MVP Jeremy Bell, their latest arrival through a revolving door at The Pavilions.
The American guard has been without a club since leaving Cheshire Jets last summer where his single year saw him average 23 points per game.
The Raiders, who are also understood to have held exploratory talks with Great Britain international Rob Yanders, have released Ben Smith to make room for Bell who is likely to make his debut in Saturday’s BBL Cup tie against Durham Wildcats.
“It was a tough decision to make,” said Raiders coach Gavin Love.
“But it’s better to make it now rather than later in the season and bring in a great player like Jeremy who will really enhance the team.”
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.
