Newcomers Orebro Basket, who has been the by far biggest suprise in the Swedish league so far with their 8-6 record (Currently in 5th place), has added yet another strength to their team, by the signing of Denis Toroman (194-G-82). The guard has already arrived in Sweden and will most likely play his first game tonight against Jamtland Basket. Toroman should be able to adjust easily as he last year played for Orebros head coach Ivan Stanisak . Stanisak who came to Sweden this year to a team people thought would end up in last place, and possibly without even winning a single game, have showed that his signings so far has been excellent, and if Toroman also can play at that level, rebro could very well compete with the Top 4 teams in the league. Can you say coach of the year?
