This afternoon, at the Bodio Lomnago office of our partner Casa Agricola, a press conference was held to introduce David Duke Jr. and Iris Ikangi.<\/p>

Here are their statements:<\/p>

David Duke Jr.<\/strong>
\u201cI\u2019m really happy to be here in Varese, a club that I\u2019ve discovered is one of the most important and historic in Italian basketball. I can\u2019t wait to start competing. I already got a taste of European basketball last year in Spain, and compared to the United States, the game here is more strategic, but at the same time requires making decisions much more quickly. Physicality also plays a key role, and I think that suits my style of play well. My goal is to put my skills and my style of play to work for the team. These first three weeks in Varese have been wonderful, and I\u2019m truly happy to be part of this group. I think the team is very well-balanced: each of us has different strengths and skills, and I believe this very diversity of talent can be one of our key strengths. The birth of my daughter was an emotion that\u2019s hard to describe. Right now, it\u2019s not easy being away from her and my wife, who are still in the United States, but I\u2019m happy because they\u2019ll be able to join me here soon. A return to the NBA? Right now, my heart and mind are in Varese. I want to win as many games and tournaments as possible, and right now, my focus is entirely on this team. As for the NBA Europe project, I think it\u2019s very interesting. In general, anything that can contribute to the growth and development of the basketball movement is always something to be welcomed.\u201d<\/em><\/p>

Iris Ikangi<\/strong>
\u201cI\u2019m very happy to be here in Varese. I\u2019m an ambitious player, and I believe I embody the values and ambitions of this club very well. I have a great relationship with Andrea Calzavara: before coming here, I asked him for advice\u2014both about the club and the city of Varese\u2014and he spoke very highly of both. Udine was a very important stop on my journey because it allowed me to grow and gave me the opportunity to get to where I am today. I think I\u2019m a good defender, but I know I still have room for improvement. I really like Coach Kastritis\u2019s philosophy in this regard: his system is stimulating and certainly presents a challenge that can help me take another step forward. Becoming a dad was an incredible feeling. I\u2019ve been a dad for just eleven days, and I\u2019m truly happy that my daughter was born right here in Varese. They say that when a daughter is born, a special season begins\u2014I really hope that will be true for me, too. As for the league, I think the level of play has risen compared to last year, and it\u2019ll be crucial not to underestimate any team. The key will be to stay focused on ourselves, on our work, and on our path. Right now, it\u2019s still hard to predict how the season will unfold: we\u2019re only at the beginning, and we need to focus above all on improving day by day.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
