Valencia Basket and Braxton Key End Contract

Valencia Basket announced that the club and American power forward Braxton Key have mutually ended their partnership after the player declined a contract renewal.

Over 68 games with Valencia, he posted averages of 6.7 points, 3.6 rebounds, 0.8 steals and 0.5 blocks, and will pursue a new offer elsewhere.
