Nuwaidrat signs Haminn Quaintance!!

Al-Nuwaidrat (Premier League) signed experienced 34-year old American forward Haminn Quaintance (201-85, college: Kent State). He already started the season at Al-Najma and got released last month.
Part of last season Quaintance spent at Isa Town. He also spent pre-season at Al-Riffa earlier that year. In only one Premier League game he recorded 14 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal.
In 2009 (a year after he left the college) Quaintance was drafted by Reno Bighorns (D-League) in second round (26th overall).
He attended Kent State until 2008 and it will be his twelfth (!!!) season in pro basketball.
The list of the past achievements is quite long as among others Quaintance's team made it to the ASEAN League Semifinals in 2017. He was selected to Icelandic League All-Star Game back in 2013.
Quaintance is quite experienced player. He has played in nine different countries on four different continents (Europe, Asia, Australia and of course North America). Quaintance has played previously professionally in Australia (Frankston Blues), Finland (Kauhajoki), Germany, Israel, Japan (Dragonflies), Morocco, Iceland (Skallagrimur) and Vietnam (Saigon Heat).
He could be described: A scorer who can play with his back to the basket, put the ball on the floor or face up and hit the mid-range jumper. A well-rounded and athletic forward who fills up the stat sheet: he scores, rebounds, gets assists, steals and blocked shots. He can guard several positions well and can defend out on the perimeter or in the paint. He is an unusually gifted passer for a frontcourt player and he is very unselfish. He can be deployed successfully in the high post or low post.
