Courtesy of Eurobasket LLC Here is the weekly review of the top performing Bonnies alumni, who are currently playing in pro basketball.
#1. Experienced Surinamese player Charlon Kloof, a 6'3'' guard at 36 years old, who graduated from St. Bonaventure in 2014 and currently plays professionally in Holland, recently made his debut for Den Bosch this season. In his first game, despite putting up a solid performance by scoring 8 points and securing 1 rebound in just 14 minutes of play, Kloof couldn't lead Den Bosch to a victory over Zwolle. The team suffered a 57-72 loss on the road to Zwolle, a lower-ranked opponent. It's worth noting that Kloof, who holds both American and Surinamese citizenship, is eligible to play in Surinam as a domestic player.
#2. Canadian Frank Mitchell, a towering 6'8'' forward and a proud alumnus of Bonnies from the class of 2026, is making waves in the professional basketball scene in Canada. Recently, he showcased his skills by leading the Scarborough Shooting Stars to a thrilling 106-104 victory against the Surge, who were winless at 0-4, in the Canadian Elite Basketball League. Mitchell's impressive performance included 11 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists in just 28 minutes of play. The Scarborough Shooting Stars, with a somewhat modest 4-0 record this season, have been dominating the competition in the early stages of the Regular Season. However, Mitchell remains focused on the challenges ahead, recognizing that it is still early in the season and anything can happen in the competitive world of basketball. In a standout display of talent against Calgary, Mitchell once again proved his worth by contributing significantly to his team's success with 11 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists. His exceptional performance was instrumental in guiding his team to victory and ultimately securing their position as the champion of the game. With impressive statistics this season, averaging 12.5 points per game, 10.8 rebounds per game (leading the league in this category), and 2.5 assists per game in the four games he has played so far, Mitchell continues to establish himself as a formidable force on the court. As a key player for the Scarborough Shooting Stars, his contributions are undoubtedly crucial in their pursuit of success in the league.
