Asvel announced the signing of Puerto Rican point guard Tremont Waters to their roster this Sunday. He will return to the Betclic Élite after the 2022-2023 season played with the Metropolitans 92, in a team that continues its long rebuilding this summer following the reduction of its budget from 59 to 24 million euros.

Asvel finally has its point guard. The club announced this Sunday the official signing of Puerto Rican Tremont Waters (28 years old, 1.78 m). The former teammate of Victor Wembanyama at Metropolitans 92 during the 2022-2023 season will thus return to the Betclic Élite as well as Vincent Collet. The former coach of the Île-de-France team is part of Tony Parker's staff for the upcoming season.

Drafted 51st overall in the 2019 Draft by the Boston Celtics, the point guard played only about thirty games in two NBA seasons. Since leaving the Mets 92, Waters has alternated between the Puerto Rican and Chinese leagues, where he averaged between 14 and 20.8 points per game. Asvel thus adds a scorer to a roster that seems increasingly built to be competitive in the EuroLeague.
