Ivan Paunic signs with Astana

Ivan Paunic

Ivan Paunic (198 cm) has signed in Kazakhstan with Astana (VTB League). During 2013-14 season the Serbian player played for Baloncesto Fuenlabrada (Spain-Liga Endesa) and averaged 8.3 ppg and 1.5 rpg in 34 games.  

Ivan Paunic, who is a member of the Serbian national team, was released by Azovmash Mariupol from the Ukraine in December 2012. He averaged a disappointing 3.4 ppg in both the Ukrainian Superleague as well as in the VTB United league. Ivan Paunic split his time last season between Russia and Italy and has also played in Greece and Belgium in the past.

Astana is currently in the middle of the standings in the VTB league with a 2-1 record and their next game is not very likely to improve that record, since it is on the road against Nizhniy Novgorod.
