Matt Coleman III has become the new point guard for Dzików Warsaw. The American has signed a contract with our club for the upcoming season of the Orlen Basket League.
Coleman is a basketball player who likes to share the ball with his teammates, but is also capable of getting under the basket and taking accurate three-point shots.
Matt was raised in Norfolk, Virginia. From 2017 to 2021, he attended college in Texas, where he played for the Texas Longhorns.
The point guard's solid performances in the NCAA resulted in a contract with the Stockton Kings. This club normally plays in the NBA's "backroom," the G-League.
During the 2021-22 season, Coleman averaged 12.8 points per game and 5.2 assists per game, and was one of the leading lights in Stockton.

The 2022/23 season has been full of challenges for Coleman. The 25-year-old has had the opportunity to play for several European teams. He started the season with Besiktas in Turkey, where he averaged 10 points per game. He then moved to Konyaspor for a while.
The American finished the season on European courts with the Greek Peristeri, for whom he played 17 matches. He also won the bronze medal in the Greek league.
In addition to basketball, Matt is interested in fashion. In 2020, he created his own clothing brand - Monumental. It offers lifestyle clothing.
