Z.I.P. Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 Thanks Mom! And all blessings to the whole Chop Fam, and the Kangoeroes! Maybe he can take some grad courses in Belgian brewing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balsy Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 So he's going from a kangaroo to a Kangoeroe! That's actually got to be the coolest post-akron career move I've seen! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Z Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 Kangoeroes Basket Willebroek is a basketball club based in Willebroek, Belgium. The team plays in the Belgian Basketball League since 2013. The club was founded in 2009, as a result of a merger between BBC Kangoeroes Willebroek and Boom BBC. The team name was BBC Kangoeroes-Boom, but in summer 2013 the team was renamed Kangoeroes Basket Willebroek. In the 2013–14 season Kangoeroes started playing in the professional Ethias League, after the club received a C-licence from the Belgium Basketball Federation. This license allowed the team to play with a lower budget than other teams. They play in the Sporthal de Schalk Arena, which has a 1,000 seat capacity. The team has not finished very well in the league, so Kwan's addition should have an immediate impact on their future accomplishments. Fear the Roes?

kreed5120 Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 Kwan has a lot of potential to make noise in whatever league he ends up being in. He's a big that can rebound, play D, and can hit the long ball. I know he's capable of reaching higher limits than what we've witnessed at Akron.

I would rather have seen these capabilities elevate themselves between Jan. and Mar. of this year, rather than some later time in Europe.

zippyfan34 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Kwan off to a good start for the Roos After 4 games he is leading the team in minutes played, 3rd in scoring, leading rebounder, and is shooting well at almost 50% from 3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreed5120 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Glad to hear he is having success. I sometimes grew frustrated with this shot selection, but I could tell he always gave 110%. He should have a successful career in whatever league he ends up in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1981 grad Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 It looks like they use him as a perimeter player with 26 three point attempts to 11 two point attempts and only a couple foul shots attempted. It does not surprise me that Kwan leads the team in rebounds. He really developed into a great rebounder during his years at Akron. I hope he continues to have great success.
