Flamengo's Basketball Team Undergoes Restructuring During Pre-Season

Flamengo bid farewell to two players from their basketball roster this Wednesday (04). They are Jordan Williams and Matheus Leoni. O Mais Querido even announced the departure of the athletes through social media.

“FlaBasquete bids farewell and thanks Jordan Williams and Matheus Leoni for their dedication and achievements with the Sacred Regatta. Thank you, dear ones!”, posted Flamengo on social media last Wednesday (04).

Why did the players leave Flamengo?

Firstly, Jordan Williams left Flamengo to sign a contract with Minas, one of Rubro-Negro's rivals in Brazil. During his time with O Mais Querido, the forward averaged 12 points and four rebounds per game.

Meanwhile, Matheus Leoni has not signed with any club yet. In other words, the player's departure is solely related to the non-renewal of his contract. The athlete has already said goodbye to his rubro-negro teammates.

When does Flamengo debut in the NBB?

The first game in the Novo Basquete Brasil (NBB) is already scheduled. The Rubro-Negro returns to the court on October 18, against Bauru, at the 'Panela de Pressão' Gymnasium in São Paulo.
