K.C. Rivers: "Here to show my worth"

The latest arrival in the Grissin Bon house K.C. Rivers was presented at “lo stoRE,” the white and red outlet in Piazza Prampolini.

“We add to our staff a player accustomed to the high level and a person of value – began sports director Alessandro Frosini -. K.C. has the characteristics we were looking for: great European experience with titled clubs, as well as unquestionable technical qualities; I believe he can immediately give a hand to the team. His contract is until the end of the season with an exit clause in February only for the Euroleague“.

“I am happy and motivated in returning after so many years to play in Italy, the country in which my professional career began,” Rivers said. “I am here to think about playing basketball, show everyone my value and above all help the team with my experience and characteristics. I know the history and fame of Reggio Emilia in the Italian basketball scene: the Eurocup semifinal reached last season is just the latest confirmation of how good a job the club has done in these seasons. Moreover, I know that Kobe Bryant, one of the players I am most inspired by, lived here a few years. This city, among those I have been to, reminds me in some ways of Treviso. I have been welcomed by everyone with great kindness, and I think it will take me very little to adapt.”
