 Local, regional and national sports news Basketball Brazilian look for Tenerife Tenerife Rural basketball side has taken on a Brazilian look this season following the mass clear-out of players from last year.  Santos in particular looks a useful addition, having already spent a year in Europe with Bulgarian outfit Cherno More. The ex-Minnesota State University forward is described as “a very physical player” by his new coach and should beef up the defence considerably. The equally big Fiorotto was signed from Limeira club in Brazil and is a full international with his native country. The club’s other major signings of the close season are American Kevin Freeman, a 31-year-old who has played in Australia, Mexico and Venezuela in recent years, and Weyinmi Efejuku, a US-born Jamaican, who joins the club straight from college.
