Southern California Legends News Release


Southern California. The SoCal Legends announced that its two ABA All-Star players, Jimmy Miggins and Kenny Brunner, have signed contracts to play pro basketball overseas. Miggins, who averages 24 pts, 6 rebounds, has signed with a Japanese basketball league and Brunner, who averaged 18 pts and 8 assists has signed a deal with a Venezuela basketball team.

"I knew it was a matter of time before they signed deals," stated Legends head coach/President Gary Grant. "Especially Jimmy Miggins. His game has improved tremendously and he's consistent. They offered him a good deal and he deserved it."

The Legends have three players that have signed deals to overseas basketball leagues. The team plays tonight against the Aoshen Beijing Olympians; the fifth time these two clubs will meet. The Legends hold a 3-1 edge. It is an important game with the playoffs starting next week. For more information, visit www.socallegends.com or www.abalive.com.
