New legionnaire in Poland: Chin Ido Fleischer has signed for the Polish team Szczecin from the Polish league for one season and will play as a local player thanks to the Polish passport he holds.
Fleischer (23, 2.08 m), grew up in the youth departments of Bnei Herzliya and Maccabi Tel Aviv, played for two years at the University of Hawaii and was also part of the reserve team's victory in the 2018 European Championships in Chemnitz.
After that, he played for Maccabi Ashdod and Hapoel Gilboa / Galil, but found it difficult to integrate and leave a significant mark.
Last season he played for Maccabi Rishon Lezion and also in its ranks did not impress and finished with an average of 1.5 points in 4.4 minutes per game.
Fleischer said after the signing: "I can tell fans who do not know me that my strength is playing with my back to the basket. I understand the game well and want to develop as a basketball player next season, and be the best version of myself. I heard there is great organization and a good team here. I want Help the group as soon as possible. "
King Szczecin finished last season in seventh place in the table and in its ranks played ex-Maccabi Tel Aviv from Chai Lampa and ex-Hapoel Tel Aviv Rodney Purvis.
Next season she will be coached by Lithuanian Rolands Yarotis who was recently appointed to the position in place of the Spanish Jose Ramirez.
Fleischer is expected to collaborate with guard Michael Dixon Jr. who played for Bnei Herzliya in the 2018/19 season.
