After a long cucumber season filled with suspense and secrecy, BC Mures announced the roster for the new season. The management, with the approval of coach Srecko Sekulovic, opted for players who either played for the team before or had solid performances at other Romanian outfits.
The first step was the strengthening of the Romanian player contingent. For this purpose the club signed domestic talents like veteran power forward Andrei Căpușan, 210 cm center Lázár László and young but ambitious short forward Vlad Corpodean. But in my humble opinion the best catch of the transfer period was young Hungarian guard with Romanian citizenship, Polyák László.

With the hard part over the, management started to focus on signing the maximum number of foreign players allowed by the rules of the Romanian Basketball Federation. After proposing extensions to almost all of last season's players, the club managed to re-sign veterans Vaidotas Peciukas (picture) and Ivan Ivanovic who had a big role in last year's bronze medal run. Matija Ceskovic and Ousmane Barro are also returning after having solid seasons with Sibiu and Pitesti respectively. The new kids on the block are dynamic point guard Edi Sinadinovic who also played for Pitesti last season and relatively unknown forward Sammy Emile who never played in Europe before.
Forever young at heart Jakab Cristian and youngsters Barabási Csongor and Adrian Oprea from the U20 team will make up the roster. Young talents like Dimitris Rasty and Lucian Țibîrnă who will also play for the U20 team will have their chance to learn and develop their game and show coach Srecko Sekulovic that they deserve minutes in the National League also.
Coach Srecko Sekulovic will begin his third season with the Tigers, seconded by Szászgáspár Barnabás and fitness coach Bogdan Călin. Their job is to bring out the best of these players, because the potential for another medal winning season is in the cards.
