February 19, 2010 / 12:00 pm

Tristan Blackwood (183-G-85) moved from the DeFriesland Aris to their cooperation partner Eiffel Towers Den Bosch. The point guard takes over the place of Dean Oliver, who got injured last week. Eiffel Towers had to rely on the emergency rule in the cooperation contract, indicating that only in emergency cases, players can move. Blackwood scored 30 points in his final game with DeFriesland Aris and he finished this season with averages of 14.0 ppg, 4.0 apg, and 3.0 rpg. He joins Effiel Towers to play in both the FIBA EuroChallenge and Dutch Eredivisie league play.
