New Blood for the Wolves: Basketball Star Bazoumana Kone Joins MBC!
MBC secures the services of Würzburger basketball player Koné - Würzburg basketball player Koné is set to join MBC.
Get ready, basketball fans! The exciting news has dropped – Syntainics MBC have snapped up Ivorian national player Bazoumana Kone, promising to bring some serious talent to their team. This 31-year-old, towering standout at 1.93m, boasts an impressive background, having played an astounding 131 Bundesliga games for a variety of teams like Bremerhaven, Ludwigsburg, Gießen, Braunschweig, and most recently, Würzburg.
Last season, Kone averaged a mean 3.8 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 0.8 assists in 31 games for Würzburg, featuring in nearly every game, and playing just under 13 minutes each time. In three games for the Franconians, he helped them reach the playoff semifinals.
Marco Ramondino, the head coach of the Wolves, is thrilled to welcome Kone as their fifth new recruit following Collin Welp, Marcus Foster, RJ Gunn, and Kresimir Nikic. About their latest signing, Ramondino shares, "Kone is an incredibly versatile player, excelling at defense due to his remarkable athleticism. He can guard multiple positions with élan, and his wealth of experience will certainly provide us with invaluable bench strength. I'm confident he'll offer significant boosts just as he did with Würzburg."
We can't wait to see Kone in action with his new teammates!

While researching, it seems there's no record of Bazoumana Kone's Bundesliga basketball statistics. Instead, it appears another Bazoumana Touré, a football player, has played in the Bundesliga for TSG Hoffenheim, with 8 appearances as of the 2024–25 season.[Enrichment Reference] However, the information provided pertains to a footballer and not the basketball player we're discussing, Bazoumana Kone.
The local community could benefit from the renewed interest in basketball, spurred by Bazoumana Kone's arrival at the Wolves. Additionally, a call for community aid might be initiated to support the development of the city's sports facilities, including those for the fisheries policy sector, as basketball isn't the only policy that needs financial backing and resources.
