“I chose this opportunity because Frankfurt has a rich basketball tradition and because the BBL is competitive and respected. Coach Wucherer believes in me and my game and sees in me a chance to help Frankfurt re-establish itself in the BBL,” said Croswell.
Coach Denis Wucherer believes his new center can make the step from the second Turkish league to the BBL. “He has the necessary physique and skillset that are needed for a modern center in Europe,” said the 51-year-old. This should complete the squad planning.
At Fenerbahce, Croswell averaged 18.8 points and 9.4 rebounds. His season best was 31 points. Croswell previously played for the US college team Providence Friars for three years.
