Angelo thanks for talking to German Hoops. At the moment you are in Bremerhaven waiting for a settlement on your release from the team. How tough is it being in the middle of the road not being on a team and having to look for a new one?

I am still in Bremerhaven, waiting for my settlement agreement. its pretty tough not being able to play basketball period. I have a family an it’s hard to provide without a job. I have faith in my agent that a job opportunity will come soon as they come to an agreement.

I am sure you came with very own high personal expectations to Bremerhaven. How disappointed are you about not being able to stay with the team?

I am not happy with the decision, but I’m glad to have had the opportunity.
