    The Breakers have confirmed the signing of their new import

    The Breakers have confirmed the signing of their new import


    And he has NBA experience.

    As reported earlier by our newsroom, small forward Lamar Patterson will play for the Australian basketball league club this season.

    He played 40 games for the Atlanta Hawks in the NBA between 2015 and 2017, and was part of the ANBL first team last season after 21.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 4.6 assists per game for Brisbane.

    He'll replace fellow-American Scotty Hopson.
