Argentine basketball clubs announce coaching and roster changes

Several changes are occurring within Argentine basketball clubs as the season progresses. In Mar del Plata, Unión has parted ways with head coach Juan Aquino following a difficult start to the Liga Argentina de Básquet season. Despite recent additions to the roster, the team has secured only one victory in its first four games.

Bautista Mendiola, a 24-year-old coach, has been appointed to lead the team. Mendiola is scheduled to make his official debut on November 9 against Villa Mitre at the José Martínez stadium.

In Corrientes, Regatas Corrientes has completed its first foreign player exchange of the season. The club has released Keith Stone and signed Dayon Griffin, a 30-year-old American forward from Florida. Griffin joins the team after playing for Jorge Guzmán de Ecuador, where he averaged 19.3 points per game. He is expected to join the squad during their upcoming tour, pending international clearance.
