Virtus Segafredo Bologna is having a great season and has decided to reward one of the key players in Luca Banchi’s system.
As officially announced, Daniel Hackett signed a new deal that will keep him at the club until 2026.
“Happy and proud to continue wearing the colors of Virtus for another two seasons and continue to fight together with my teammates and all our fans,” Hackett said.
The 36-year-old guard joined Virtus in 2022 from CSKA Moscow and was part of the team that won the EuroCup the same year. He, therefore, helped Virtus return to the EuroLeague and also won two Italian Supercups with the Bologna team.
Hackett played 21 games in the EuroLeague this season, averaging 9.1 points, four assists, and 3.3 rebounds for an average PIR of 12.2, as Virtus Bologna sits third in the standings after two-thirds of a season with a score of 15-7.
