Cholet Basket bolstered its froncourt by bringing young power forward Maxime Chupin back from loan. Chupin (204, 20) spent last season at French ProB side Aix-Maurienne Savoie Basket, where he averaged 2 points and 1.6 rebounds in nine minutes per game.
He has represented France at the junior level, taking part in the 2007 Under-18 European Championships in Madrid. At Cholet, Chupin will play with both the senior and reserve teams this season.
