KK Cedevita announces Pierre Jackson
The former NBA player inks in Croatia
Cedevita will soon be stronger for another American player, since point guard Pierre Jackson signed with the team from Zagreb. It is an excellent point guard with fantastic shooting abilities, excellent penetration abilities and court vision, which will suit coach Mršić well, taking into account the injury of Ra’shad James.
Pierre Jackson used to play for two Universities. He began at the College of Southern Idaho and later moved to better known Baylor. He had excellent numbers at the University and was one of the candidates for Naismith and Wooden awards, given to the best point guards of the USA.
In 2013 he was selected as a 42nd pick at the NBA Draft by the Philadelphia 76ers. However, he never appeared in a single NBA game, even though he used to play for New Orleans, Philadelphia and Portland.
Last season (2015/16) he averaged 9.12 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 20.5 minutes, playing for Idaho Stampede.
