The NBS Nelson Giants newest import has touched down and is already in the action.
Kobe Langley has flown in from America and will strip up with the team for their Friday night match against the Auckland Tuatara, where he will be looked upon to make an instant impact.
Having just finished his university career, playing five seasons for UNC Greensboro Spartans in NCAA the 6'1 point guard looks set to be an impressive addition to the squad.
Winning the ‘Defensive Player Of The Year’ for his conference twice, expect action at both ends of the court from the new import.
With one overseas player yet to be announced, the team is without a big man in the paint as they enter the third round of play in search of their first win.
