Olympia announced its first confirmed alien, within a trident that is chosen, awaits the signature of the other two.
Iván Basualdo, a 2.03 and 31-year-old Argentine pivot, was the outsider officially announced by Colón’s team for the next Uruguayan League. He comes from playing in San Martín de Corrientes in Argentina. He will have his second experience abroad since he was also in Leones de Durango de México in 2020.
But also, the white machine awaits the signed contracts of two other players with whom it has everything arranged. The first is known: Marvin Phillips. The 2.01 and 37-year-old power forward was already last year reaching the semifinals where he was eliminated with the champion, Biguá. He played 17 games, averaging 14.1 points, 4.9 rebounds and a good 46.4% on shots of 6.75. He had previously played for Defensor Sporting and Goes.
The other is a new face for Uruguayan basketball. Charlie Marquardt, forward of 1.91 and 26 years. The American with a past in the Czech Republic. He comes from the United States TBL where he averaged 18.5 points and 3.7 rebounds per game. He is a player who stands out for his firm footing, a born shooter who averaged 48% in triples in his last season.
Foreigners join Abel Agarbado, Juan Viana, Brian García, Nicolás Catalá and Pablo Macanskas as major chips. Mateo Dogliotti, Thiago Leites and Joaquín Núñez stand out among the Under 23s. The team will once again be led by Gerardo Jauri.
