NBA – The veteran point guard will follow Willie Cauley-Stein in the Italian championship after signing with Reggio Emilia. He will notably team up with Briante Weber next season.
After Willie Cauley-Stein (Varèse), it is the turn of another former NBA player to join the Italian first division. It is Langston Galloway, who has just signed in Reggio Emilia. Last non-relegation last season after finishing in 14th place, the Emilia-Romagna club pulled out all the stops to get off to a good start with veterans Briante Weber and Jamar Smith, for an outside line now completed by Langston Galloway, whose the arrival was made official on Thursday.
“I am delighted to start this new chapter of my career in Italy. It’s a new opportunity for me to do what I love. Right now I feel a mixture of emotion, gratitude, frenzy and a great hunger for competition. I can’t wait to give it my all, on and off the pitch. I want to make this new page of my basketball career unforgettable., he said in particular.
After some 450 NBA games accumulated in his career between New York, New Orleans, Sacramento, Detroit, Phoenix, Brooklyn and Milwaukee, as well as an experience in the jersey of Team USA for the qualifying phase for the World Cup, the leader of ” only » 31 years old is looking for a second wind after spending the last season in the G-League, with the College Park Skyhawks (15 points, 44% of 3-point skill, 3.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists) .
Without an opening in the NBA after a month of free agency, he therefore changed his tune, heading to Italy, to the delight of Reggio Emilia and his coach, Dimitris Priftis.
“Langston is a very important piece to complete our team. Although this is his first experience in Europe, he can look back on a long and remarkable career in the NBA. He’s a great shooter and a good defender, but above all he’s a charismatic and leading player who will help us build a winning mentality and a fighting spirit.”
he pointed out.
Unlike John Wall, reluctant to leave the NBA, Langston Galloway did not hesitate to take the plunge by joining Europe. It must be said that the leader loves adventure, he who created his own brand of shoes dedicated to the practice of basketball by launching the brand “Ethics Brand” in 2021.
