Per La Gazzetta Dello Sport and Pianeta Basket, Estudiantes will add Alessandro Gentile to the roster for the remainder of the season.

Gentile spent the previous season with Virtus Bologna, averaging 16.8 points, 6.3 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game.

During the summer, the Italian forward was close to joining the Houston Rockets’ training camp, but the team decided not to include him in the roster.

Gentile will make his ACB debut with Estudiantes, which is currently eighth in the standings (2-2).

The player’s contract will include an opt-out clause, in case Gentile receives an offer from a club that competes in the EuroLeague, EuroCup and Basketball Champions League, respectively.
