Maccabi Tel Aviv announced on Tuesday that it has signed Kamar Baldwin, a point guard with EuroLeague experience, who has played for Bayern Munich and Baskonia, until the end of the year.
The season has not started well for Maccabi, as the Israelis have two wins from ten elite matches, and they will be without Lundberg for a while.
Because of this, they had to act, and the decision was made to sign the 185 cm tall point guard. Maccabi also had to conduct negotiations with Bayern to secure his release.
“Following the injury of Iffe Lundberg, which unfortunately requires an extended absence, we acted with full intensity in the attempt to find a player who can fill his spot on the roster,” clarified club chairman Shimon Mizrahi.
“This is despite the fact that at this stage of the basketball season, it is not an easy task. The professional manager Claudio Coldebella and the coaching staff focused on Bayern Munich’s player Kamar Baldwin, who has experience in the EuroLeague and plays as a point guard. After successful negotiations with Bayern for his release, we will see the player with us in the coming days. We wish him great success.”
“Kamar is a tough player with EuroLeague and European basketball experience,” emphasized coach Oded Kattash. “He can play both guard positions, which will add depth and quality to us.”
“I am happy to be part of the Maccabi family, excited to join and for the opportunity to take a step forward,” said Kamar Baldwin to the club’s official website. “I can’t wait to start.”
