BBL: Bamberg holt US-Forward Gray

Brose Bamberg has signed defensive specialist Justin Gray as their first new signing for the upcoming BBL season.

Former series champion Brose Bamberg has signed forward Justin Gray as his first new signing for the coming season in the Basketball Bundesliga (BBL). The 27-year-old American comes to Franconia from the Greek first division club GS Lavrio, but the club did not specify the contract period.

“Justin gives us flexibility on the defensive. He can defend different positions, something we lacked last season,” said Bamberg’s head coach Oren Amiel. Gray averaged seven points and three rebounds last season after having played in England, Kosovo, Portugal and Poland.
