Coming out of his world Cup successful with Puerto Rico, both individually (20.0 points, 9.2 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 2.6 steals) and collectively (12th place, synonymous with qualification for the OQT), Tremont Waters sets out to discover a new championship, since he joins the Chinese league.
Preview alongside Victor Wembanyama at Boulogne-Levallois last season (18.2 points, 5.0 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 2.0 steals), before leaving the Ile-de-France club with a bang, the 25-year-old pocket leader commit for one year with the Guangdong Southern Tigers.
In China, Tremont Waters will evolve alongside MarShon Brooks (ex-Nets and ex-Grizzlies) or Zhou Qi (ex-Rockets), but not with Yi Jianlian (ex-Nets), whose retirement has just been recorded. In the NBA, we remember that the 51st choice of the 2019 Draft went through Boston, Toronto and Washington, without managing to win there between 2019 and 2022.
