Taylor Braun

Hsinchu Lioneers (PLeague+) signed 32-year old American ex-international swingman Taylor Braun (201cm-93kg-1991, college: NDSU) for upcoming 2023-24 season. Braun will still stay in Taiwan where he played last season at Tainan GhostHawks (T1 League). In 7 games he had 11.3ppg, 5.9rpg and 3.9apg. PLeague+ will be definitely a better match and he can see more playing time. He helped them to make it to the Taiwanese T1 League final after they ended regular season as second best team.
The previous (2021-22) season he played at Steelers. In 17 PLeague+ games he recorded 14.4ppg, 9.9rpg, 8.3apg (leader !!!) and 1.9spg in that year. Braun was a member of USA Senior National Team back in 2018.
He is quite experienced player. Braun has played in eight different countries on four different continents (Europe, Asia, Australia and of course North America). He has played previously professionally in Australia (Bullets), Belgium (Okapi Aalst), Germany (ratiopharm Ulm), Israel (Maccabi Ashdod/Be'er Tuvia, Next Urban Maccabi Haifa and Hapoel Beer Sheva), Italy (Pesaro), NBA (Utah Jazz), NBA G League (SLC Stars) and The Basketball Tournament (Eberlein Drive).
The list of the past achievements is quite long as among others he was voted to Eurobasket.com Belgian League All-Imports Team back in 2015.
Braun graduated from North Dakota State University in 2014 and it will be his tenth season as a professional player.
