We bring you last week's top former Sycamores players who are currently playing in pro basketball.


   #1. Experienced David Moss (6'5''-SF-83, graduated '06, plays pro in Italy) led Germani BR to a surprising victory over the league leader Armani Milano (21-7) 92-86 in the Italian Serie A on Saturday night. He was MVP of the game. Moss scored 27 points (!!!) and grabbed 4 rebounds in 44 minutes. Germani Brescia Leonessa (14-15) is placed 12th in the Serie A. His team will play only one more game in the Regular Season. And that game will be critical. This season Moss averages 7.9ppg, 4.3rpg, 2.3apg and 1.2spg.

   #2. Joshua Crawford (6'11''-C-88, graduated '10, plays in Japan) could not help Saitama Broncos (3-5) in their last game. Despite Crawford's very good performance Saitama Broncos lost 85-100 on the road to the leading Tokyo Excellence. He was the top scorer with 23 points. Crawford also added 5 rebounds and dished 3 assists. There are only four games left until the end of the Second Stage. So now every game is very crucial. It's Crawford's first season with the team. He has individually a very good year with high stats. Crawford averages 21.4ppg, 11.7rpg and 1.5apg in 53 games he played so far.

   #3. Jake Odum (6'4''-G-91, graduated '14, currently in Italy) was not able to help Pistoia Basket in their game against MIA-RO Cantu (15-13) in the Italian Serie A. Odum recorded 8 points in 21 minutes. The bottom-ranked Pistoia Basket was defeated 84-74 at home by the higher-ranked MIA-RO Cantu (#10). It was Pistoia Basket's third consecutive loss in a row. There are only two games left until the end of the Regular Season. So now every game will be important. This season Odum averages 3.9ppg, 3.2rpg and 2.0apg.

   #4. Everett Clemons (6'1''-G-94, graduated '17, plays pro in Bosnia) was not able to secure a victory for Vogosca (3-5) in their last game. Despite Clemons' good performance the fourth-placed Vogosca (3-5) was crushed 90-56 in a derby game by the higher-ranked (#3) Spars Sarajevo in the Places 1-6 group. He scored 10 points and added 3 passes. It was Vogosca's third consecutive loss in a row. Clemons' team will play only one more game in the Second Stage. And now that game is quite important. This year Clemons averages 9.0ppg, 3.6rpg, 4.1apg and 2.0spg in 22 games.
