Mike James Explains Move to Anadolu Efes
Euroleague's all-time leading scorer says talks with management and GM Pablo Laso convinced him to leave Monaco for Istanbul.
Mike James has completed a move to Anadolu Efes after five seasons at Monaco, one of the more notable transfers of the off-season.
Euroleague's all-time leading scorer explained the switch during the competition's media day in Istanbul, pointing to conversations with the club's management as the deciding factor.
"I liked our conversations with the management, in particular with the general manager and Pablo Laso. I was interested to find out how they see the team this season and what role they have for me. I thought this was a good option and that we would have the chance to fight for serious goals. I still believe that, so I'm looking forward to the start of the season," James said.
