OFFICIAL A2 - OraSì Ravenna, the signature of Lewis Sullivan arrives
OraSì Basket Ravenna announces that it has reached an agreement for next season with Lewis Sullivan, the 201 cm American strong forward, who played the last two seasons in Ukraine at Khimik Yuzhny. Sullivan thus completes the stars and stripes couple with Austin Tilghman, with whom he shares the year of birth, 1995, and the opportunity of an important showcase for his career.

Born May 29, 1995 in Hazel Green, Alabama, Lewis Markel Sullivan trained at the University of Alabama and played four NCAA championships in the UAB Blazers, until the 2018/19 season ended with 12.3 points and 6.8 rebounds in 35 games. In 2019/20 he lands in Europe and plays two championships with Khimik Yuzhny in the Ukrainian Super League, the first with an average of 16.7 points and 8.4 rebounds per game, the second with 16.3 points, 9.8 rebounds and 2.6 assists. For him also a victory in the Ukrainian Cup and the title of MVP of the event.

“With the signing of Lewis we complete the package of senior players within the formula agreed with the club - comments the Giallorossi coach Alessandro Lotesoriere - We are talking about a young and ambitious player, flexible on the pitch and available to work for the team. The goal is that his development in European basketball coincides with the development and growth of a team that will have to be more and more humble and hungry. Lewis, in addition to the technical qualities, has shown us to marry and embody this mentality ”.
