Ghana center Amida Brimah has made a brilliant start to life at Valencia Basketball Club by starring off the bench in a Euro Cup win.
Spanish side Valencia beat French side Bourg-en-Bresse 107-96 in the regular season of the second tier continental championship.
Former Indiana Pacers player, Brimah, came off the bench to play 14 minutes and registered 10 points, four rebounds and a block with all four rebounds coming on the offensive side.
His production was highlighted by a two handed powerful alley oop dunk six minutes into the third quarter to give Valencia a 66-58 lead.
The 30 year old Ghanaian had a lot of motivation going into the game after playing for Bourg last season before joining Spanish Liga Endesa side Baxi Manresa at the start of the 2024-2025 season on a loan contract.
The 6 foot 10 inch defender moved from Manresa to Valencia and is set to play out the rest of the season with the club.
