The first big summer addition to Siena’s roster is a fact. The Italian champions announced the signing of American shooting guard Marcelus Kemp who last season played at Turkey with Besiktas. Kemp is expected to be a starter for his new team, which revamps its roster and wants to unload every big contract in it.
That’s why the signing of Kemp could also mean that the transfer of Siena’s biggest star to Fenerbahce/ Ulker is done. According to multiple reports from Italy and Turkey, Bo McCalebb is ready to continue his career in Istanbul and Siena will get 1,2 million euros from Fener in order to release him.
In Slovenia, Olimpija Ljubljana officially announced the signing of Australian forward Aron Baynes, who played last season in Greece for Ikaros Kalitheas and he is currently competing in London’s Olympics as a member of Australian national team.
