Articles about Taqwa Pinero
January 26, 2010
- Taquan Dean
Dean started the year with Unicaja Malaga, averaging 11.7 points in the Euroleague and 9.3 points in the ACB. He took a lot of three pointers to get those numbers, hit only about 35% of them, did little else on the court, and did not really endear himself to the fans. (Ask a Malaga fan about Dean and gauge their reaction. They're generally a trifle brusque about it.) Malaga released Dean earlier this month, as mentioned in an earlier post, and yesterday he signed a one month contract with rival Spanish team Caja Laboral (the artists formally known as Tau Ceramica).
