Nick Faust picked up by Stargard

PGE Spojnia Stargard from Poland has picked up Nick Faust (198 cm, F).

Nick Faust was a big-time prospect in Highschool. Initially, he ended up at the University of Maryland, where he immediately was selected to the ACC All-Freshman Team after averaging 8.9 ppg and 4 rpg.

However, those numbers hardly improved in his Sophomore and Junior years, so he transferred to Long Beach State, where he found back his grove. He averaged 17.4 ppg and 6.1 rpg and was the All-Big West Newcomer of the year, as well as an All-Big West 1st Team selection.

His first two seasons as a pro were rocky as his stats in Israel and Italy were mediocre for an American import. However, at a step lower, in the Hungarian league, Faust was able to dominate again. Last season he posted 15.5 ppg and 5.1 rpg for Atomeromu Paks.
