Team check - KK Igokea - Bosnia (Jamar Butler)

(The Iceman - Jamar Butler)

Quick rundown

Jamar Butler

Position: Point guard extraordinaire/versatile enough to play off guard if need be

Years Pro: 2

Teams: 4 - Eldo Caserta in Italy, a squad in Turkey (Rookie Year), Olympia Larissa in Greece, and nowKK Igokea in Bosnia (2nd year)

Former Buckeye Champ Jamar Butler joined KK Igokea (Bosnia) in March. English coverage of the Bosnian League is scare, but the team's official website is good for game by game updates as well as images. Igokea is one of the best teams Bosnia and Herzegovina League, they recently acquired some big additions to help win the second leg of the regular season (currently 2-2). In addition to signing Butler, Igokea also added Lavell Blanchard (Michigan), and in a cool twist, post player Christopher Massie (Michigan), Butler's teammate at Larissa. These two already have chemistry together, similar to Ron Lewis & Phil Ricci (both moved from Isreal to the same Czech squad). Hopefully some video emerges of KK Igokea so we can see Jamar Butler back in action.
