Стівен Бурт-молодший пройде трай-аут у “Будівельнику”! Перший легіонер в історії збірної України вже у Києві і невдовзі розпочне разом з командою підготовку до матчів проти “Миколаєва” і “Мавп”. Попереднім клубом до карантину для 36-річного Стіва був аргентинський “Гімнасія Індало”, де він встиг відіграти лише 6 матчів і приносив команді в середньому 11,3 очка + 1,1 підбирання + 1,1 передачі за 19,5 хвилин. Але розпочинав сезон 2019/20 Бурт у грецькому «Іонікосі», де за 28,4 хвилини в місцевій елітній лізі мав наступні середні цифри: 18 очок + 2,5 передачі + 2,3 підбирання в 13 матчах. Варто зазначити, що в сезоні 2018/19 Стів став найкращим скорером чемпіонату Греції у складі «Ретімно» з показником в 19 очок за гру. Стів Бурт виступав в Україні за «Ферро-ЗНТУ» та «Дніпро», і з обома командами здобував Кубок України. У складі дніпрян американець працював в тому числі під керівництвом Вальдемараса Хомічюса. З національною збірною України Стів відіграв Євробаскет-2011. #BCBudivelnyk #МиПовертаємось #БКБудівельник
