New Gun on Oldenburg's Team: Geno Crandall's Rebound in Bundesliga
Geno Crandall, a feisty and talented US-American basketball player, recently joined EWE Baskets Oldenburg in the Bundesliga, adding a dash of flavor to this season's games. This veteran player is not an unfamiliar face in the league, as he had made headlines a season ago for engaging in a scuffle with Ulm's Karim Jallow.
Official BBL Statement:
The player will be suspended for four mandatory games from April 1, 2023, for assaulting another player in accordance with Section 21 BBL-SO, and they will also be subject to a fine.
Oldenburg's Head Coach Pedro Calles commented on his new addition, saying, "We're thrilled to have Geno on our team. Everyone remembers his impressive performance last season. Geno is a mastermind on the court, capable of leading and organizing the game. His personality fits perfectly with our team culture."
Geno, for his part, expressed his eagerness to join Oldenburg with a clear emphasis on defense, creating opportunities for his teammates, and having fun. "Competing with others and giving my best is what I'm all about," he said.
Given the temporary injuries to Brekkott Chapman and Alen Pjanic, the club signed Geno as a reinforcement. Oldenburg's boss, Hermann Schüller, said, "We needed to react to the personnel situation after Brekkott's injury to cope with the strain of the upcoming months in both the BBL and the Basketball Champions League. We're delighted to have quickly found a player like Geno who fits perfectly into Pedro's plans."
