June 19, 2006 - American Basketball Association (ABA)
Knoxville Noise News Release
Knoxville, TN. ABA Knoxville Noise co-owner Gavin Raiteri is once again proud to announce that another of his signees has securing a summer playing position in the Mexican LNBP League. Kevin McDonald, a 6'8" point forward has been working out for Santos de San Luis Potosi, the former 2004-2005 Champions of the LNBP. Kevin played for the Kennesaw State Owls from 2003-2005. He was an important part of the team that won the NCAA Division II championship in 2004. As a junior, he played many key minutes during their drive to the championship and was a major contributor during their Championship game victory.
As Suki Sports, the parent company of the Knoxville Noise, begins to grow, they hope one day to be a supplier to talent for the LNBP and other professional basketball leagues. The Knoxville Noise and Mr. Joe Duran, a player scout of the LNBP, have been working together to try and place as many of the Noise players in the LNBP as possible. It is the mission of the Knoxville Noise to put their players needs to the forefront of their team decisions. The Noise are trying to build a family atmosphere with their team. By securing their players summer jobs playing basketball, they provide them the opportunity to make a living playing basketball year round. The Knoxville Noise wish Kevin great success during his time with LNBP and are looking forward to a safe return to their team for the upcoming 2006-2007 ABA season.
