Gran Canaria agreed on a 2-year contract extension with Jim Moran. The 30-year old player appeared 34 times in ACB last season averaging 7.1 ppg and 1.6 rpg. In EuroCup he played 7 games collecting 6.3 ppg and 2.4 rpg. Next season will be the 9th consecutive for Moran on the island. His best one was 2005/06 when he had 12.2 ppg in EuroCup.
Jim Moran is a product of William & Marry College, where he graduated in 2001. After he moved overseas, Moran joined Granca and never changed the club so far. It seems that his basketball and personal qualities were good reasons for the club's decision to keep him almost the entire decade.
Jim Moran has dual citizenship, USA and Irish, what is another advantage for the player. He was a member Irish National Team few times.
