Another former Indiana basketball player is continuing his basketball career in Europe as James Blackmon Jr signed with another Italian club, this time with Aquila Basket Trento, who finished 17-13 last year.
It was announced a couple of days ago from the club’s twitter account and confirmed on Monday from Blackmon’s agency.
The former IU standout averaged 19.7 points, second-most in the league, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game last season while playing for Pesaro in Lega Basket Series A, the same league as Aquila Basket Trento.
Blackmon is set to join a roster that has had multiple Big Ten players in the past with Devyn Marble (Iowa) and currently former Ohio State point guard Aaron Craft.
