Reggie Lynch joins Loko

With this signing we strengthen our position under the boards, add variability in team actions. The already existing "big" Alan Williams and Valery Kalinov will be joined by a big, but very mobile center. Reggie stands out for his hard work, he reads the game well, he is effective in pick n rolls and loves team basketball. Of the strong qualities, one can definitely single out his defense, he will certainly help us add pressure in the paint.

My time in Kalev I’ve played against Kuban twice. I remember this team being very-very strong together, very strong opponent. And my goal as long I plan to play with the team not against is that I bring some intensity on the offensive and defensive end. You know that I’m one of the best in the league in blockshots, so I will try to protect the rim the best that I can. My very big goal is to bring Lokomotiv to very high level in play-offs both in Eurocup and VTB league. As I know we can do. Personal goal is to become a top shotblocker in the league. I’m very exited to be playing with such a big talent players and for the coach with such a nice resume. Russia always been a very strong country in basketball. It will be a great growing experience for me to say that I play in one of the best basketball countries in the world. Hope to have good time playing with very experienced Russian and foreign teammates. I believe we can have an amazing season. I look forward to be with you guys very soon.
