Despite coming back to the ACB only this summer, Morabanc Andorra is making sure they are incorporating the right pieces to start the season in the best way possible. In order to do so, the newly promoted team in Spain officially announced the addition of Jerrick Harding.
In the 2022-23 Basketball Champions League, the former ERA Nymburk guard had 17.4 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game by shooting 58.0% from two, 45.1% from three-point range, and 84.5% at the line next to Devin Robinson in BAXI Manresa.
Moreover, he established himself as the second best-scorer in the whole ACB, scoring 16.2 points per game with 50.6% from two, 34.8% from deep, and 87.6% at the charity stripe. He caught attention from all over Europe when he put up 41 points against Real Betis.
“Jerrick Harding arrives at Morabanc Andorra to be the team’s leading scorer. We were looking for a player who can easily score points and who, if possible, had experience in the ACB. Harding fulfills both”, Morabanc Andorra’s General Manager Francesc Solana stated.
The 25-year-old joins Markel Starks, who recently joined the Andorran side. The 32-year-old Georgetown Hoyas product, who played in the EuroLeague with Fenerbahce in 2022, is coming off a Basketball Champions League season with Darussafaka of 10.9 points and 4.6 assists per game.
