Anwil Wloclawek is almost finishing the process of completing the roster for the 2011/2012 season. The latest acquisition is Corsley Edwards who has signed a one-year deal. Ex-NBA American center last season spent in Croatian Cedevita Zagreb.
- Corsley is a player that we exactly needed. Even though we considered some other offers, he always was at the top of our wish list and I am very satisfied with this kind of acquisition. He is so strong and smart center – says Emir Mutapcic, the headcoach of the Anwil.
32-year-old Corsley Edwards (2,05) spent last season in Croatian club Cedevita Zagreb. He was one of the key players in that team and thanks to his performances, the club qualified to EuroCup Final Four. American player averaged 12,3 ppg. and 6,9 rpg. but it was not the highest level of his skills because in the Adriatic League he managed to play even better - 17,5 ppg. and 5,4 rpg.
Edwards is a typical center who knows how to move in low-post in order to be a productive player for his team. American big guy is very often unstoppable when he gets a good ball after a pick and roll. Moreover, he has extremely much experience due to the fact he had played in various leagues in his career. After the NCAA (15,4 ppg. and 8,7 rpg. in his senior year at Central Connecticut State) he decided to play in the CBA league, D-League, Turkey, Spain, Puerto Rico, United Arab Emirates, China, Egypt and Croatia. In Chinese Yunnan Honghe Running Bulls club Edwards was able to average incredible 37,7 ppg. and 11,9 rpg. in 10 games! Besides, he had played 10 matches for New Orleans Hornets (2,7 ppg. and 2,5 rpg.) in the NBA.
- Corsley is a center whose the biggest asset is his experience. Not only did he spend many seasons in America and Europe, but he also took part in many top games. For example we can take into consideration last edition of EuroCup where he turned out to be one of the best centers in the competition. To sum up, a really great player is going to play for Anwil but I ensure all fans that the statistics were not crucial in signing a deal with him. The most important thing was his capability of functioning in the team – adds Mutapcic.
