Edi Sinadinovic has been brought to BC Mures to substitute for the departure of Goran Martinic. This will be a tough act to follow, because Martinic was one of the best point guards of the league and without doubt the best scoring point guard. Edi wont play like Martinic because he is a different profile point guard. He is a good shooter and has a half decent  drive to the basket, but he is a much better defender than his predecessor due to his 191 cm height. 

He only played the latter half of last season for BCM U Pitesti, but contributed fully to his team's performance of making it to the playoffs. He played backup point guard for Ken Tutt and shooting guard, but his favorite position is point guard, running the plays. He can draw two defenders and pass the ball to the open teammate or can play mismatch against smaller point guards.

His last year's statistics show him as a team player. His 13.1 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game came in 31:35 minutes per game, the highest average playtime in the team. He also had 2.6 turnovers. His shooting percentages were decent: 41.9% from 2 points and 37.9% from 3 point range.

Below you can find a short interview with Edi.

1. You had a solid half season at Pitesti playing point guard and shooting guard. Which one is your favorite position on the court?

My favourite position is to play point guard.

2. You come to Tirgu Mures to substitute Goran Martinic, one of the best scoring point guards in the league. Is that a problem for you?

I came to TÎrgu Mureș to be first point guard, also that's coach decision who will be the first and I will respect his decision because I am a professional.

3. You know most of your teammates from last year's games and probably got to know the rest of them also. What's your opinion, can this team repeat or exceed last season's bronze medal run?

I think that we have good a team and if we play like a team we can make a good result this season.

4. A few words for the fans, please.

Fans, we will have a big fun this season!
