Cheshire Phoenix have brought American centre Jimbo Lull to anchor their defence.
Winless in the BBL, the BBL outfit have released Eric Hamilton to make way for the newcomer.
Lull played collegiately at University of San Francisco Dons and then had a brief stint in Serbia, where he suited up for KK Sloboda Uzice on two occasions and averaged 7.5 points and 4.5 rebounds per game on 62.5% shooting from the field.
Nix head coach Ben Thomas: “Jimbo is exactly what we need right now. He’s a real presence on the court and will help us in the paint at both ends of the floor.
“He’s a vocal player that will really anchor our team from that centre position.
“I know he is highly motivated to have a great season here with us.”
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.
