With the new EuroLeague season just around the corner, FC Bayern Munich announced an addition of a pair of players, center David McCormack and guard Aleksa Radanov, signing one-year deals on Tuesday. These two moves will give coach Gordon Herbert much-needed roster pieces, after the long- and short-term injuries to Johannes Voigtmann, Elias Harris and Rokas Jokubaitis.
McCormack (2.08 meters, 26 years old) split last season, his first in the EuroLeague, between EA7 Emporio Armani Milan and ALBA Berlin. Starting the season with Milan, he averaged 1.0 point per game in limited minutes as he averaged just 6:19 minutes on the floor across six EuroLeague appearances. With ALBA, however, McCormack was a significant factor. In 22 games he played 19 minutes per contest, posting 10.5 points and 5.7 rebounds.
The American center has played professionally for Besiktas Fibabanka Istanbul (2022-23), Darussafaka and Galatasaray (2023-24), and Milan and ALBA last season. At Besiktas, McCormack posted 9.1 points and 7.4 rebounds in 23 Turkish League games. Then with Darussafaka, he averaged 12.2 points and 5.8 boards in five Basketball Champions League fixtures, before posting 13.2 points and 6.8 rebounds in 10 BCL games with Galatasaray.
Radanov (2.02 meters, 27 years old) is a product of Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade where he played in youth categories and where he made his professional debut in 2015. The following season he was loaned to FMP Zeleznik, and he switched between FMP and Zvezda for several seasons until the end of 2020-21 campaign, during which he had 14 EuroLeague appearances.
The following season Radanov moved to Igokea in Bosnia Herzegovina, and went on to also play with Peristeri in Greece, Runa Moscow in Russia, Mega Belgrade in Serbia and finally last season with Legia Warszaw in Poland.
Radanov, who has also played for the Serbian national team over the years, has spent the last few weeks in training camp with Bayern and now has earned a one-year contract for the upcoming season.
