"🔥 A francia élvonalból érkezik csapatunk legújabb 🏀 játékosa 👉Meccsből érkezik hozzánk csapatunk új játékosa, az amerikai Tevin Brown, hiszen a kanadai Ottawa Black Jacks együttesében még július 25-én is 35 percet játszott és 15 pontot szerzett. 📢Az Egyesült Államokban, az alabamai Fairhope városában 1998. szeptember 23-án született Tevin Brown 195 centiméter magas kosaras, pontdobó hátvéd, aki a St. Murray csapatának volt a tagja 2022-ig. Onnan Új-Zélandra vezetett az útja egy rövid időre, de a legutóbbi bajnoki szezont már a francia Betclic Elite-ligában, vagyis a francia élvonalban kezdte a Levallios csapatában. Mindennél beszédesebb az itt lejátszott 32 mérkőzése, a pályán töltött 23 perce és a közel tízpontos (9,2) átlaga. A nyáron a kanadai CEBL profi bajnokságba, az Ottawa együttesébe igazolt, itt 7 mérkőzésen 31 percet átlagolt és 18 pontot.💬- Tavaly Franciaországban játszottam a Boulogne-Levallois Metropolitan 92 csapatában, jelenleg pedig Kanadában, az Ottawa Blackjacks nyári ligájában. Izgatottan várom a lehetőséget, hogy idén Magyarországra jöhessek és játszhassak, ami biztosan nagyon jó élmény lesz. Kemény sorozatra számítok a szezon során, de remélem azt is, hogy sok meccset fogunk nyerni új csapatommal – nyilatkozta röviden honlapunknak Tevin Brown, akivel most következő szezon végéig kötöttünk szerződést. #welcome #ztekk #zalaegerszeg".
