This season Seminole County and the University of Georgia’s basketball standout Jordan Harris will be taking his talents to Poland to join Asseco Arka, a Polish professional basketball team, based in Gdynia.

One month later, Harris took a short deal to play with La Vega Reales in the Dominican Republic top basketball league. He averaged 16.5 points per game, 4.2 rebounds per game, 3.4 assists per game in just five games.

Jordan commented, “My experience in the UK was great, and I am extremely excited to continue my professional career in Poland. I thank God for the opportunity and also allowing me to stay healthy throughout the season. I will always appreciate the support from my family and my community no matter where I am or how far I am from home.”
