It’s been five years since he left LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne, but the 2019-20 might mark Edwin Jackson’s return to his first professional team. The writings were on the wall since last summer and Jackson has an offer from the French team on his hands, according to Eurohoops sources.
After departing from ASVEL, the 29-year-old French guard played four EuroLeague campaigns including his 2018-19 tenure with Buducnost VOLI. He averaged 7.9 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.9 assists playing in all thirty Regular Season matches.
He visited Lyon on Sunday on the occasion of ASVEL’s home game versus Nanterre 92. He never hid the fact in the past that he would be eager to make his comeback with his first professional club returning to EuroLeague.
