ImageTurkish champions Efes Pilsen added centimetres to their roster by acquiring Daniel Santiago.


The Puerto Rican is to sign a one-year deal and will, therefore, remain active in the Euroleague after wearing the jersey of Barcelona last season.

At 33 the Americas Championship 2009 silver medalist will play for a club outside Italy or Spain, the countries were he was apart from Puerto Rico and the United States (Phoenix Suns and Milwaukee Bucks).

Last season in the Euroleague the 2.16m centre averaged 6.4 points and 2.7 rebounds in 23 games

The player is expected to only play in Efes Pilasen's Euroleague games.
