Pallacanestro Trieste announces the acquisition of Latvian forward Roberts Stumbris, born in 1993, from Pallacanestro Trapani. He has signed a 1+1 deal until the end of the next sports season.


“The agreement with Stumbris was closed in 20 hours – the analysis of General Manager Mario Ghiacci – We had to react immediately to Hudson’s injury to ensure the competitiveness of our roster, and we didn’t waste any time. The player will be available from this evening’s training session, and we hope he can quickly fit into the team’s mechanisms.”


Stumbris, after spending the last two seasons in Iceland and Poland, completed his summer preparation with Pallacanestro Brescia before moving to Pallacanestro Trapani in A2 last November. With the Sicilian team, he made 17 league appearances, averaging 14.5 points per game and 6.5 rebounds. The Latvian forward is part of the national team led by coach Banchi, with whom he participated in the preliminary round of the FIBA ​​World Cup 2023 in Group A.


“First of all, it is necessary to thank the club – the words of coach Marco Legovich – for this additional effort to put us in the best conditions to achieve our goals. With Stumbris, we add to our roster a dangerous perimeter player, versatile and with great physicality, capable of covering both the 3 and 4 positions. We will have to be good at integrating him into the team as quickly as possible, but the enthusiasm the player has shown when given the opportunity to play in the top league will certainly fuel the process.”
