The dreadlocks have taken the place of the hair, but the warm smile and enthusiasm have remained the same. Rashawn Thomas introduces himself like this: «I am very excited to return, I have great memories of my experience in Sassari, even if the team has changed and I am focused on giving my help to the team ».

Six years ago with Dinamo he won the Europe Cup and reached the championship final . Coincidentally, his debut could take place on Saturday at the PalaSerradimigni against Milan, beaten 3-0 in the semi-finals for the tricolor: «Milan is a great team, but we have shown it in the past: there are no impossible feats, you have to play with energy».

After Sassari he played with Partizan Belgrade and then adventures in the championships of South Korea, Japan and China : «The competitive spirit is the same, but in Italy there is a lot of intensity and tactics. In these years I have learned some things about how to make myself useful to the team and I am curious and eager to apply them».
