Valencia Spain Here comes Kelati./
http://eri-internationalsports.blogspot.com/
Eri-international sports has learned once again that Thomas Kelati
will be going back to Spain. The sharp shooting guard/Small forward was
signed with the team for the rest of this season, Valencia officially
announced Monday. Valencia is the third largest city in Spain and one of the
most beautiful cities on the west coast of Spain. Kelati last played for
Unicaja, where he averaged 11.8 points in 16 Euroleague games last season.
He had just signed with Olympiacos of Greece over the summer when his
contract got voided. He made his move to the United Sates where he continued
to stay fit by playing throughout the summer. He was signed with the Los
Angeles Lakers and had a great stint during the pre-season.
According to our reliable sources, "Coach Phil Jackson and the Laker
organization were very impressed with his performance, but had to waive him
simply because of Salary cap". Thomas has left a good impression on the
Lakers and hopefully will be back playing in the NBA next season, more than
likely with the Lakers. Meanwhile he has signed a one-year contract with
Valencia where he will play in a tough Spanish League against his former
team Unicaja. Last season Kelati tied the record for the most three-pointers
made in a single Euroleague game where it has never been done in a decade.
He scored nine times from behind the three-point line in a home win against
Lottomatica Roma.
Thomas has strongly expressed his gratitude to all of his fans
throughout the world for all their support. He hopes to come back strong
next season and perform in the NBA. Keep an eye on the Spanish La Liga of
basketball as well as the European League where he will be one of the top
players to watch. Congratulations to Thomas Kelati and his family. Hope to
see him in a Laker uniform next year.
