Kevin Braswell re-signs with Southland Sharks

Kevin Braswell (188 cm, Georgetown’02) has re-signed with the Southland Sharks (New Zealand-NBL) for the 2013 season. During the 2012 season with the Sharks, Braswell led the team in scoring, averaging 20.6 points and 5.1 assists per game over 16 NBL games. He’s currently playing for the Melbourne Tigers (Australia-NBL) and is averaging 13.7 points and 5.0 assists per game. Last season he suited up for the New Zealand Breakers (Australia-NBL) and helped the squad win the NBL title. Over 34 games he averaged 10.2 points and 4.2 assists per game. The New Zealand NBL plays from early March to the end of May, so Braswell will play with the Tigers until their season is done and will then suite up for the Sharks when their season begins.

Braswell, a 2002 graduate of Georgetown University, still holds the NCAA and Big East Conference marks for the most career steals at 349. His career average steals per game of 2.7 ranks him second all-time in Big East history and ninth all-time in NCAA history.
