CORTEZ AN EAGLE
Newcastle Eagles have prised Cortez Edwards away from Worcester.
The American guard, 23, averaged 13 points and six assists in his rookie campaign with the Wolves.
And Eagles head coach MacLeod said “I think Cortez is someone who fits our style of play perfectly.
“Athletic, exciting and excels at high tempo. A great addition who gives us an extremely dynamic back court.”
Edwards, a star collegiately at the University of Southern Mississippi, is set to slot beside Rahmon Fletcher in the backcourt on Tyneside.
“I bring a lot of energy and playmaking on both ends of the court. My goals for the season are to grow every aspect of my game and to win a Championship,” he said.
Cheshire Phoenix have re-signed British point guard Disraeli Lufadeju.
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.
