Former UConn point guard RJ Cole has found his new home. Yesterday Cole signed with Greek club Lavrio B.C, which plays its games in the small town of Lavrio - about 30 miles southeast of Athens. The club competes in the Greek Basket League - tops in the country.
Cole played the last two seasons in Storrs after transferring from Howard University. He won MEAC Rookie of the Year and Player of the Year during his time in D.C., before vying for stiffer competition and making the move to join Dan Hurley in the Big East. Known as a score-first guard, Cole netted over 2,300 points in his collegiate career and led the Huskies in scoring last season at 15.
