This is the third pro team that DLO has played for this season. He started this season playing for Old Wild West Udine in the Italian Serie A2 league and averaged 10.0 ppg, 3.3 rpg, and 2.3 apg. Then he moved to Benacquista Assicurazioni Latina Basket in the same Italian Serie A2 pro league, and averaged 9,0 ppg and a team-leading 3.3 assists per game. Now his contract was purchased by Den Bosch of the Dutch BNXT league. There is a pretty good chance DLO will be playing against Luuk van Bree in the league playoffs.
A couple other Bradley alums also plays in the Dutch BNXT League, for a different team,
Donar Groningen. That is the team Rienk Mast played for as an amateur prior to coming to Bradley. Groningen is in 3rd place behind Den Bosch and ZZ Leiden with a record of 12-6.
Donte Thomas - Donte's season has been limited by injury. He is averaging 7.0 ppg and 5.8 rpg for Groningen. Donte started the season by signing with a team in Hungary, but never played any games there.
Jimmy Gavin - Jimmy is averaging 10.1 ppg and 3.4 assists per game for Groningen, and he's shooting 51.7% from three. Jimmy started the season playing in Turkey.
