Who would have thought that American basketball player Tyson Carter, the MVP of the FIBA Champions League, would become the new player of Red Star? Yes, you read that right! The guy who, over the last two seasons with Unicaja, won six trophies and averaged 11 points and 3 assists per game, is now the latest addition to the Belgrade powerhouse. Carter was the MVP of the FIBA Champions League final in Athens, where Unicaja clinched the trophy, and before that, he played for Lavrio and Russian Zenit. Red Star has expressed great satisfaction with his signing and his desire to wear the red and white jersey, which Carter confirmed with his concrete actions during negotiations.
Red Star had previously signed players like Chime Moneke, Ebuka Izundu, Semi Ojeleye, and Stefan Miljenović, but bringing in the FIBA Champions League MVP definitely raises the bar. Will Carter be the key player to bring Red Star back to the top of European basketball? Fans are eagerly waiting to see his magic on the court.
This move clearly signals that Red Star is not sitting idle but seriously competing for the biggest trophies. With a player who has proven he can dominate big games, expectations are sky-high. And if you thought this was the end of surprises, wait to see how Carter fits into the team and what performances he delivers.
If you have thoughts on this transfer or believe Red Star can work wonders with this signing, feel free to drop a comment. Who knows, maybe your prediction will come true!
