Former San Antonio Spurs and Indiana Pacers forward Ben Moore has signed with South East Melbourne Phoenix for the NBL21 season.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old American has signed a one-year deal as an import player.<\/p>\n
Moore played four years of college basketball at Southern Methodist University (SMU) before spending the last three years splitting time between NBA and NBA G-League opportunities at San Antonio and Indiana.<\/p>\n
At 203cm (6-8) and possessing a versatile skillset on both ends of the floor, Moore will spend time at both forward spots and the centre position for the Phoenix.<\/p>\n
He says his assets will help turn the Phoenix into a tough, hard-edged team.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt just sounded like a great opportunity for me and I think I could bring some things to the team that are really going to help them out, so I’m really excited about getting there. I heard the culture is already really good there so it should be a great fit,\u201d Moore said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI’m going to play as hard as I can every game. Defensively, I’m going bring a lot to the team and I’m going to try to embody the (team) culture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
