Chris Caird Signs First Pro Contract in Iceland

By Bradley Gains on June 21, 2015

Chris Caird has turned professional after joining FSU Selfoss in the Icelandic Dominos League.

The 6’6″ guard/forward recently finished his college career at Drake and played in all 31 games of his senior year.

Caird averaged 6.9 points per game last season, shooting over 40% from 3-point range having hit game-winners against Southern Illinois and Indiana State.

He scored a career-high 21 points as a junior in the 2013-14 season after making the switch to Drake from JUCO side Marshalltown Community College, where he spent his freshman and sophomore years.

Caird’s first pro club, FSU Selfoss claimed the Division 1 playoffs title to earn promotion to the top flight having finished third in the regular season with a 13-8 record.

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.
