MIKE MORSELL.jpgPlymouth Raiders have added former Newcastle Eagle Mike Morsell for the remainder of the 20/21 BBL season.
24 year old Guard Morsell played his college ball with Towson in the Colonial Athletic Association Conference starting in 103 out of 130 games across a stellar four-year career where he averaged 11.7 points and 3.4 rebounds a game.
This earned the 6’ 5” guard/wing a first professional contract last season in Finland’s Korisliga with Lapuan Korikobrat. He got his career off to a fine start averaging 16.4 points and 5 rebounds a game until injury cut short his season in December.
For Eagles, Mike played 11 games and averaged 15 points per game and is expected to make an immediate impact on his return to the BBL for Raiders.

Raiders have got themselves a player there if he can improve his consistency. Had some great games for us last year but also had some where you could forget he was playing at times. Sometimes could be a little selfish when an extra pass was needed but could score the ball well at end of shot clock type scenarios in tight situations.
I had a feeling a BBL club would be announcing him at some point. Wouldn't swap him for any of our imports this season though!

And with that first performance I'm glad we've already made our Pavilions trip this season!
