The BKT EuroCup reigning champion, JL Bourg, added to the roster rebuild heading to the 2026-27 season with Keith Jordan. The 28-year-old American forward signed a one-year contract, as announced on Tuesday.

The newcomer arrives after an impressive stint with Azerbaijanโ€™s Sabah, under the guidance of veteran coach Rimas Kurtinaitis. His 2025-26 breakthrough was highlighted by six appearances in the Basketball Champions League Season X, powered by Ameresco SUNEL, with 17.2 points and 5.0 rebounds per game.

Jordanโ€™s journey across several international leagues shapes a resilient and ascending career path. After starting with Siena in the NCAA between 2016 and 2019, he spent multiple seasons in the Dominican Republic before progressively dominating European minor leagues in Iceland and Slovakia. His continuous upward trajectory led him to the second tier of Euroleague Basketball.

The athletic wing is expected to bring immediate physical impact, active perimeter defense, and efficient off-the-ball scoring to Bourgโ€™s new-look squad.

On Monday, Dolomiti Energia Trento inked 19-year-old guard Patrick Hassan to a contract extension through the 2028โ€“29 season. As a veteran of 18 EuroCup games over the last two seasons, the promising young talent averaged 2.1 points per contest during the 2025โ€“26 season. โ€œTrento and this club have become a second home for me,โ€ noted the Italian youth national team standout, who expressed his commitment to growing and contributing further to the team.

Also on Monday, the London Lions announced that Ethan Price has penned a two-year contract extension. The 24-year-old forward returns after a solid rookie EuroCup campaign, where he averaged 5.6 points and 2.9 rebounds across 16 appearances.
