Marques Townes Bids Farewell to Hakro Merlins Crailsheim
Saying goodbye to his German Basketball League (BBL) club, Marques Townes, the 28-year-old point guard, parted ways with Hakro Merlins Crailsheim on agreeable terms. The news was announced by the struggling club, currently stationed at the bottom of the table, on a Thursday.
Looking forward to a fresh start, Townes will trade his German jersey for a Czech one, as he signs with BK Opava in the Czech Basketball League. This switch comes shortly after his July signing.
While sources such as dpa.com did not provide specific information about Townes' departure from Hakro Merlins Crailsheim or his signing with BK Opava, it did confirm that the player previously represented Anorthosis Ammohostou before joining another international basketball league team, KB Peja [1]. Given the fluid nature of transfers in European basketball league systems, Townes' new opportunity in the Czech Basketball League comes as no surprise.
