Surprisingly, Siena signed Aleksandar Rasic as their new backup PG and Mario Kasun as their starting C. The roster should be sealed unless they opt to make some changes in the frontcourt (Mancinelli? Diogu?) where Kangur's position is still questionable.
Roma signed young Polish forward Olek Czyz. He's a rookie with NCAA experience, he played for Duke and eventually transferred to Nevada, where he averaged 13.8 ppg and 6.5 rpg last year. They also signed Lorenzo D'Ercole as a backup PG, nice picks for the bench. They're now expected to make a couple more moves, as they still need to sign starting SG and C. The guard may be either Phill Goss (Virtus Bologna also interested in him) or Austin Freeman (who's being pursued also by Pesaro). I'm enjoying their new philosophy, they dramatically cut their finances but they're signing young and talented players which is smart when you're not particularly ambitious.
Caserta signed veteran Lithuanian SF Zygimantas Jonusas (Phoenix Hagen), to a 2-yr deal. He comes off a very good season (14.8 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 55% 2p, 40% 3p, 71% ft). They keep eyeing Marco Mordente to seal the roster.
Brindisi may have lost C Dejan Borovnjak for the season as he just underwent surgery and will have to be sidelined for a long time. He will likely be released and replaced in the next few days.
Avellino officially inked forward Nikola Dragovic and big man Ndudi Ebi. They're still waiting for Coby Karl's decision but meanwhile they're targeting Chris Warren in the same position (backup G/F). Mustafa Shakur should be their starting PG as Jacob Pullen appears to ask for too much money.
