Bekir Yaragüme - EuroBasket 2009 Profile

Team 2008-09: TÜRK TELEKOM (Turkey-TBL)
Career: Kombasan (Turkey-TBL, 1998-2001), TED Kolejliler (Turkey-TBL, 2001-02), Türk Telekom (Turkey-TBL, 2002-04), Beşiktaş Colaturka (Turkey-TBL, 2004-05), Ülker (Turkey-TBL, 2005-06), Banvit (Turkey-TBL, 2006-07), Türk Telekom (Turkey-TBL 2007-09)

Another late blossomer. Yaragüme has a very good outside shot, decent mobility and is quite strong. Recipe for success, right? Not until the past 4 years. His game came together in the later stages of his career. After he learned the game and mentally matured his play flourished. Especially by hard work his outside shot have become a deadly weapon. He shot %48 on 3 pointers in the past two seasons. So at age 32 he is a welcome addition to a shooter-scrapped side. His lack of international experience is his biggest weakness but with a rather limited role he might very well be the sniper Turkey desperately needs.
