Guangdong team s foreign players will switch to the Greek league, and his performance in the Rockets in the summer league is not ideal

Greek league team AEK Athens officially announced that the team has completed the signing with the US wing player Adonis Arms, who was previously in free agency, and he will also appear in the European arena for the first time in the new season.

Ames was born in June 1998 and is 27 years old, 198cm tall and weighs 93kg. He is the undraft in the 2022 NBA Draft. Arms has participated in NBA Summer League games for the Denver Nuggets, Brooklyn Nets, Sacramento Kings and Houston Rockets. He has also received training camp contracts from the Nuggets, Phoenix Suns, Memphis Grizzlies and New Orleans Pelicans, but he has never been able to appear in the NBA arena. He has played in the NBA Development League for a long time and he has played for the CBA team Guangdong team last season.

In the CBA field last season, Ames played 5 times for the Guangdong team, averaging 20 minutes per game, with averaging 10.2 points, 1.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 blocks, and 2.2 turnovers and 1.8 fouls. His shooting percentage was 32.6%, a three-point shooting percentage of 26.9%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 82.4%. Ames' performance in the CBA last season was terrible. His offensive efficiency was a mess, his three-point shooting percentage was terrible, his scoring ability was not fully utilized, his passing and organizational ability were also very average, and his role on the defensive end was not particularly outstanding. It was also because his performance was completely unsatisfied, that Ames was quickly cut by the Guangdong team. Obviously, his performance is a huge gap between everyone's expectations, which is really a bit too bad.

Previously, Ames also represented the Rockets in the NBA Summer League. Arms played 4 games in the summer league, averaging 28 minutes per game, with averaging 15.5 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 2 steals and 1.2 blocks, and 1.8 turnovers and 2 fouls. His shooting percentage was 36%, a three-point shooting percentage of 20.8%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 77.8%. Ams' performance during the summer league is also not ideal. He actually has a lot of playing time. He can get a lot of ball rights and mobile phones on the court. As a result, his offensive efficiency is still at a terrible level, and his performance outside the three-point line is even more outrageous. Arms has played a certain role in the defensive end, but his performance on the offensive end is indeed awkward. After all, Ames is also a player who has been working hard in the NBA Development League for many years. Such performance is completely unacceptable, and it is reasonable that he cannot get a contract from an NBA team. I don’t know if this move to the European arena can help Arms find form, otherwise his career may be getting worse and worse.
