Zenit, who sacrificed star quarterback Shabazz Napier to injury at the beginning of the season, spent the three-month period with Conner Franmkamp and Jordan Loyd.
Shortly before Napier’s return to the parquet, the Russian team tied the colors of Tyson Carter, who attracted attention with his Lavrio jersey. In the official statement made by the club, it was stated that a 2.5-year contract was signed with the 23-year-old talented playmaker.
Having averaged 13.8 points, 2.7 assists and 3.2 rebounds in 33 games with Lavrio last year, Carter averaged 17 points, 2.7 assists and 2.4 rebounds in 17 games this season.
It is estimated that the US guard will take part in the team’s match squad by January and will assume the role of scorer in Xavi Pascual’s system.
