Scotty Hopson joins Foshan Long Lions

Scotty Hopson (200 cm, Tennessee’11) is a new addition to the roster of the Foshan Long Lions (China-CBA) this 2015/16 season. Hopson participated in the 2015 NBA Summer league but unfortunately failed to draw any interest from any of the teams. After his release from the Sacramento Kings in September 2014, Hopson found a new team with the Sioux Falls Skyforce from the NBA D-League in December, where he ended up spending majority of the season. He played a total of 46 games for Sioux Falls and averaged 19.7 ppg and 4.6 rpg. In April 2015 Scotty headed to Europe and signed with Laboral Kutxa Vitoria (Spain-Liga Endesa) and there he posted averages of 4.4 ppg and 2.3 rpg in eight games.
