Ville Kaunisto
Finnish forward Ville Kaunisto (205 cm) will be playing with Lille Metropole Basket (France, Pro B) next season. The player will join Lille for the 2013/2014 campaign after the club bought out his contract with current team ADA Blois Basket (France, NM1). Kaunisto has enjoyed another fantastic season with Blois and secured the French NM1 MVP for the second consecutive year. During the award winning season he finished 4th in the NM1 for scoring with 17ppg and 1st for rebounds with 11.3rpg.

It was a similar story last season for Ville Kaunisto as he finished first for scoring with 18.2 points per game and first in rebounds with 11.3 per game. Kaunisto recently finished the 2012/2013 season with Blois after the team slipped to an overtime defeat against Souffel in the NM1 final for promotion to the ProB.
