Igokea in Bosnia have strengthened their roster with the addition of veteran point guard Oliver Lafayette. Lafayette joins Igokea after spending last season in Italy with Virtus Segafredo Bologna in the Lega Basket Serie A. The 34-year-old, who has dual American-Croatian citizenship, averaged 9.4 points and 3.2 assists per game as Virtus Bologna finished with a 15-15 record and narrowly missed out on a playoff spot. He joins an Igokea side that is off to a 3-5 start in the Adriatic League, a good start for a team that finished last season with a 7-15 record. This will be the first time Lafayette will play in Bosnia.
