Courtesy of Eurobasket LLC We bring you last week's top former Cougars players who are currently playing in pro basketball.
#1. Brian Fobbs (6'5''-G-1998, played in 2016-18, plays pro in Germany) led Telekom Baskets Bonn to a victory against the closely-ranked BG Goettingen (8-20) 95-85 in the German BBL on Sunday night. He recorded 15 points and grabbed 6 rebounds in 28 minutes. Telekom Baskets Bonn (3-8) is placed 12th in the BBL. Fobbs has relatively good stats this season 14.0ppg, 2.9rpg and 1.9apg.
#2. Kevin Major (6'3''-G, played in 2018-19, plays in Albania) contributed to an easy victory against one of league's weakest teams Fieri (2-18) crushing them 94-70 in the Albanian Superliga in Thursday night's game. Major scored 15 points and grabbed 5 rebounds; quite an impressive performance considering it's only his second season in pro basketball. Partizani Tirana (8-4) is placed third in the Superliga. The Regular Season already ended. It's Major's first year with the team. Major has individually a very good season with high stats. He averages 18.4ppg, 5.1rpg, 4.4apg and 1.9spg in 19 games he played so far.
#3. Anthony Williams (5'10''-PG-1995, played in 2015-16, currently in Australia) led Keysborough Cougars to a victory over the eighth-ranked Melbourne Uni (1-2) 90-85 in the Australian Big V (third division) last Sunday. Williams was MVP of the game. He scored 28 points (!!!) and added 4 passes in 34 minutes. Keysborough Cougars (2-1) are placed fourth in the Big V. But this is still an early stage of the season and everything may happen. This year Williams has very high stats. He averages 21.3ppg, 5.0rpg and 3.3apg. He is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top summer league for players who want to play basketball overseas.
#4. Jarett Haines (5'11''-PG-1999, played in 2017-19, plays pro in the TBL) could not help the West Virginia Grind (2-9) in their last game.

Haines has relatively good stats this year 10.7ppg, 3.0rpg and 2.3apg in three games.
