(Bericht overgenomen van de site van Heroes Den Bosch (Originele bericht --- Hier ---)
Het team van Erik Braal is eindelijk compleet bezet. Het vertrek van
Demario Mayfield wordt gecompenseerd met het aantrekken van de
30-jarige, Amerikaanse guard/forward Sherron Dorsey-Walker.
De kwikzilveren, 1,94m grote speler is geen onbekende op de
Nederlandse velden; in 2017 startte Dorsey-Walker zijn profcarrière bij
Landstede Hammers, waarvoor hij uiteindelijk drie seizoenen zou uitkomen
én in 2019 landskampioen werd. Afgelopen seizoen speelde hij in Turkije
en voor het Poolse Lublin, waarvoor hij ook het seizoen ervoor al
uitkwam en debuteerde in de Champions League. Zijn stats in Polen waren
sterk: 17 punten, 3 assists en 3 rebounds gemiddeld.
Met het naderende debuut van de blessurevrije Emmanuel Akot en het
aantrekken van Dorsey-Walker is Heroes compleet en kan head coach Erik
Braal verder bouwen aan een mooi seizoen van de ambitieuze Bossche club.
‘We zochten een ervaren speler, die als ‘secondary ballhandler’ kan
opereren, kan creëren voor zijn medespelers, stevig verdedigt én er het
liefst ook zelf nog wat ballen ingooit. Volgens mij zijn we hier met het
aantrekken van Sherron meer dan prima in geslaagd!’ Dorsey-Walker
arriveert komend weekend in Den Bosch en de club stelt alles in het werk
hem snel speelgerechtigd en wedstrijdklaar te maken.
