Flamengo continues with planning focused on the long basketball season, which will start this year. In this way, the Pride of the Nation announced the hiring of the 35-year-old American point guard Dee Bost, ex-Galatasaray (TUR) and EuroCup champion.
“I'm very excited to come to Brazil. I've heard many good things about Flamengo and about the country, and I can't wait to play in front of this incredible crowd. It's going to be a special experience”, said Dee Bost, new player of Flamengo, this Tuesday (26).
Dee Bost was born in the United States, but defends the Bulgarian National Team. The 35-year-old point guard has experience in American basketball, having trained with NBA teams such as Utah Jazz (USA) and Portland Trail Blazers (USA). The athlete also has experience in Europe.
Before closing with Flamengo, Dee Bost was at Al Rayyan (CAT). Previously, he had gone through Galatasaray, Índios de Mayagüez (PRI), Sagesse Sports (FRA), Trotamundos de Carabobo (VEN). In addition, the point guard won important individual awards, such as the best player in the Polish league finals, when he played for Khimki (POL).
Thus, Flamengo continues to prepare for the long season, which will feature several tournaments. The Most Beloved will dispute the New Basketball Brazil (NBB), the Champions League of the Americas and the Super 8 Cup. The latter depends on the classification in the first phase of the national tournament.
