Courtesy of Eurobasket LLC We bring you last week's top former Wildcats players who are currently playing in pro basketball.
#1. Darral Willis (6'9''-C-1996, played in 2014-16, plays pro in Greece) could not help Aris Midea (9-13) in their last game. Despite his good performance Aris Midea was edged86-84 at home by the one of league's weakest teams (#11) Kolossos HH. Willis recorded 13 points and grabbed 4 rebounds in 25 minutes. The Play-Out Round already ended. Willis has relatively good stats this year 13.5ppg, 6.9rpg, 1.1apg and 1.3spg in 14 games he played so far. He is a naturalized Cypriot.
#2. Roderick Brown (6'7''-F, played in 2019-20, plays in Ukraine) was not able to help Rivne in their game against Kyiv Basket (6-12) in the Ukrainian Superleague. He did not impress in that game on Monday. Brown recorded only one point and grabbed 4 rebounds. Rivne was defeated 75-69 on the road by the lower-ranked Kyiv Basket (#3). Brown has relatively good stats this season 13.3ppg, 8.5rpg, 1.4apg and 1.5spg.
#3. Tae Hardy (6'3''-G-1998, played in 2019-20, currently in New Zealand) was the major contributor in a Franklin Bulls' victory against the tenth-ranked Nuggets (3-5) crushing them 107-84 in the New Zealand NBL in Wednesday night's game. Hardy had a double-double by scoring 24 points and making 10 passes. He also added 6 rebounds in 34 minutes; quite an impressive performance considering it's only Hardy's first season in pro basketball. Franklin Bulls (6-2) are placed second in the NBL. Hardy has individually a very good year with high stats. He averages 21.8ppg, 4.1rpg, 6.8apg and 1.8spg in eight games.
#4. Experienced Zane Knowles (6'10''-C-1992, played in 2011-12, plays pro in Turkey) was not able to secure a victory for Cedi Osman (11-22) in their game against Konya BBSK (18-15) in the Turkish TBL (second division). He scored 9 points and grabbed 6 rebounds. But Cedi Osman was defeated 96-84 in Konya by the much higher-ranked BBSK (#9). It was Cedi Osman's fourth consecutive loss in a row. Knowles' team will play only one more game in the Regular Season. And that game will be critical. This season Knowles averages 8.3ppg and 6.0rpg.
