Worthing Thunder have added 5'9'' American point guard Vinnie Darpino to their roster. Darpino holds an Italian passport, and therefore counts as a European player. From YouTube videos he looks like an offensive-minded shooter/scorer who should be very exciting to watch.
Thunder's back-court now looks pretty decent; with a starting combo of Darpino and American shooting guard Chris Talley backed up by team captain James Brame. A genuine point guard next to him should allow Talley's sharpshooting to thrive in Worthing's offense, leaving plenty of holes in the defence for Courtney Small to drive through.
I'd still like to see Worthing sign an extra player, probably a big. But I think Darpino solidifies the lineup and will hopefully solve quite a few of the issues.
