Breakers sign Kirk Penney
Good news today for the NZ Breakers with Kirk Penney agreeing to a one-year deal.
More info (well, not that much more info to be honest)
Penney has previously lead the Tall Blacks in scoring (16.9 points per game) at the 2002 World Championships as they finished fourth and has suited for the Miami Heat and LA Clippers.
His last pro stint was in Germany.
This is welcome news for the Breakers after Kiwi Craig Bradshaw turned down their (apparently) higher offer to join the Bullets.
Also in NZ:
Import Josh Pace has been named the NZ NBL MVP after a quality scoring season. All-Star Five honours went to Pace, Link Abrams, Lindsay Tait, Dillon Boucher and Oscar Forman.
The NZ NBL is currently in its Grand Final series with the Giants leading 1-0 after the first of three games.
