Cosea JL Bourg-en-Bresse strengthened its backcourt by signing scoring machine Darius McGhee on Sunday. McGhee (1.75 meters, 26 years old) arrives from Telekom Baskets Bonn, where he averaged 15.5 points and 4.2 assists in 31 German League games last season.
He boosted his scoring average to 17.4 points in 10 BCL games. McGhee had a couple of stellar performances in the German League, including 40 points on 10-of-16 three-point shooting against EWE Baskets Oldenburg, and 44 points on 12-of-16 from deep against Niners Chemnitz.
McGhee had a decorated college basketball career at Liberty University. He was a three-time ASUN Conference Player of the Year and one of only five players in NCAA history to make more than 500 three-pointers. McGhee ranks second overall (528) on the all-time Division I charts only trailing Antoine Davis (588) and ahead of Max Abnas (512) and Fletcher Magee (509), who played the 2024-25 EuroCup with Buducnost VOLI Podgorica.
McGhee shares the NCAA record with Stephen Curry for most three-pointers in a season with 162. He started his professional basketball career with the Indiana Mad Ants of the G League before joining Bonn last season.
