Lokomotiv Kuban is about to complete another transfer, by signing American combo guard Mardy Collins. According to Eurohoops sources, the club and the player have already reached an agreement for an one-year contract.
A member of the 2015-2016 All-Eurocup First team, after averaging 13 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.4 assists with Strasbourg, Collins had also come close to Lokomotiv Kuban on January. However, the president of the French club refused to simply let such an important player leave his team.
Since Lokobasket’s coach Giorgos Bartzokas has known and trusted Collins’ strengths since the 2013/2014 season he didn’t remove him from his list of wanted players. Now that Collins became a free agent, the previous flirt between the Russian team and the player, will now develop and cooperation.
