Dolomiti Energia Trento strengthened its roster by inking swingman Andrea Pecchia for a one-year deal with an option for a further season.
Pecchia (1.96 meters, 26 years old) arrives from Vanoli Basket Cremona, where he averaged 6.9 points on 64.2% two-point shooting, 5.0 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 30 Italian League games last season. He started his career with EA7 Emporio Armani Milan and also played for Blu Basket Gruppo Remer Treviglio and Pallacanestro Cantu before joining Cremona in 2021. Last season, Pecchia helped Cremona win the Italian second division league and cup titles. He has also been a member of the Italian national team.
"I am really happy to welcome Andrea Pecchia: I know his technical and tactical skills well, but above all his human skills. He is a guy who has grown steadily throughout his career thanks to his ability to accept challenges and overcome his limits with dedication and determination," Trento head coach Paolo Galniati said. "I am convinced he perfectly embodies the 'Aquila spirit'. On the court, he can cover multiple roles, he is a versatile swingman who knows how to do many useful things. I am thrilled that he has accepted this new challenge in Trento and I can't wait to be able to work together again in the gym."
