The Goods Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 PHOENIX (AP) -- The Phoenix Suns have added guard Takuya Kawamura to their roster for the Las Vegas summer league. The 6-foot-4 Kawamura averaged 20.4 points for Link Tochigi Brex of the Japanese Basketball League last season. In April, he decided not to play for the Japanese national team and instead pursue a spot in the NBA. Kawamura's teammate Yuta Tabuse is the only Japanese player to play in the NBA. Tabuse was briefly a member of the Suns in the 2004-05 season. Kawamura, 23, had been a member of Japan's national team since 2005. The Suns entry, coached by Phoenix assistant Dan Majerle, opens its six-game schedule Monday against Dallas. http://www.nba.com/2009/news/07/09/suns.kawamura.ap/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
