Italian League, Season 2009-10
The 2009-10 Italian League starts with Montepaschi Siena as the main candidate to lift yet another trophy. Montepaschi has dominated the Italian League in the last years, winning the last three titles with an impressive 119-10 record since Simone Pianigiani was promoted to the head coach spot in the summer of 2006. Montepaschi kept All-Euroleague point guard Terrell McIntyre, Romain Sato, Shaun Stonerook and Henry Domercant, but also signed David Hawkins and Nikos Zisis to become even better. Lottomatica Roma, Armani Jeans Milano and Benetton Basket are the main candidates to dethrone Montepaschi. Benetton landed Davor Kus, Donatas Motejiunas and Jasmin Hukic to play alongside C.J. Wallace, Sandro Nicevic and Gary Neal. AJ Milano invested in players like Jonas Maciulis, Marius Petravicius, Morris Finley and Stefano Mancinelli. Meanwhile, Lottomatica kept Ibby Jaaber and Andre Hutson, but brought in Ricky Minard and Kennedy Winston. Angelico Biella, featuring Vanja Plisnic, Fred Jones and Joe Smith, or Banca Tercas Teramo, with Giuseppe Poeta and Ryan Hoover, will also fight to return to the playoffs. Cimberio Varese is back in action ready to fight led by Jobey Thomas, Ronald Slay and Jack Galanda. NGC Medical Cantu, Scavolini Spar Pesaro and Virtus Forza Bologna are other teams to watch in what promises to be an exciting Italian League season.
