CEZ Nymburk adds Coleman

CEZ Basketball Nymburk added more fire power to its roster just six weeks before the start of the Turkish Airlines Euroleague Qualifying Rounds by inking scoring guard Aubrey Coleman to a one-year deal on Monday. Coleman (1.93 meters, 24 years old) arrives from Angelico Biella, where he averaged 18.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2 assists and 3.3 steals in 32 Italian League games last season. He led the Italian League in steals and was second in scoring. Coleman has also played for Aliaga Petkim in Turkey and Austin in the NBA Development League since he started his professional career. Before that, Coleman averaged 25.6 points, 7.4 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 2.7 steals in 35 NCAA games with the University of Houston, leading it to the Conference USA title. Coleman will make his debut in European club competitions in 2012-13. “Aubrey has already showed in the Italian League what a great player he is”, head coach Neno Ginzburg said. “He will have to adapt to our playing style but will also give us plenty of opportunities to score.”
