Despite a difficult start to the season (seven defeats in nine N1 days), KABCA is not resigned. And his coach Laurent Buffard does not sit idly by. Last week, the technician announced the signing of point guard Joachim Haddad, recruited to relieve Aaron Anderson, forced to calculate his efforts on position 1 due to too much playing time.
In the process, the Tunisian international achieved a great first in the Kaysersbergeois jersey, against Andrézieux (7 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 11 evaluation), while his American friend dropped the horses (25 points to 6 out of 8 on the outskirts). A second success (96-83) oh so precious for “KB”, who is only one point behind Feurs, the first non-relegation.
To “turn a corner”, according to the coach, KABCA had to readjust its workforce a little more. Exit the American winger Sidney Umude, make way for Khadim Sow, “a large pivot” trained at Asvel and who should fill the glaring gaps in Kaysersberg in rebound (with 22.8 catches per game, KABCA is the worst N1 team in this sector). Passed in particular by Burgos (2e Spanish division) and Nyon (Swiss elite), the Senegalese arrives in Kaysersberg to revive.
The supporters of “KB” will be able to observe it from this Saturday (6 p.m.), in a friendly, against the Alliance Sport Alsace at the Salle Faller. Kaysersberg will then be able to plan for the two consecutive trips that are looming in the league, to Feurs (November 19) and Hyères-Toulon (25).
