Andorra's BC MoraBanc confirms departures of underperforming summer signings Justin McKoy and Aaron Best

**BC MoraBanc Accelerates Roster Overhaul as McKoy and Best Exit**

Andorra's BC MoraBanc is pressing ahead with squad changes after summer signings Justin McKoy and Aaron Best underperformed in the ACB League. Club president Gorka Aixàs confirmed on Ràdio Nacional d'Andorra that both players are set to leave soon, with McKoy already omitted from Sunday's lineup against Casademont Zaragoza.

McKoy, a forward from Raleigh brought in as a potential replacement for Tyson Pérez, has averaged 5.6 points, 2.8 rebounds and a 4.3 valuation rating over 10 games in 16:19 minutes. His 32.4% three-point shooting has disappointed compared to prior stints at Rīgas Zeļļi in Latvia (17.1 points, 7.3 rebounds in 19 games) and Hapoel Be’er Sheva in Israel (18.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, 17.6 valuation). A short NBA Summer League appearance with the Portland Trail Blazers produced 3.3 points in 7.8 minutes across four games. Aaron Ganal took his spot in the Zaragoza squad but received no senior minutes.

Aixàs said McKoy "is not what we expected" and remains "a thousand miles" from the starting power forward role planned. With Kostas Kostadinov now alongside Yves Pons, the club seeks a mutual parting without a buyout. "The best for everyone is that he leaves," Aixàs noted, explaining the player's agent is lining up options despite his high salary.

Aaron Best, signed from Trefl Sopot for better defence than ex-top scorer Jerrick Harding, has managed 5.5 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 2.2 valuation in 11 games over 19:43 minutes. His splits—16.1% on two-pointers, 40.6% from three, 73.3% free throws—have fallen flat, highlighted by a poor third-quarter start against Zaragoza. Aixàs hopes Best "does not play many more games," citing a pattern after 11 outings. As key non-EU players, their output is untenable, he added.

Doubts persist over Morris Udeze, the 2.02m centre from Japan's second division. Following 40 games with Kobe Storks (14.4 points, 8 rebounds, 15.5 valuation in 24.3 minutes) and 15 with Fukushima Firebonds (17.3 points, 8.6 rebounds, 22.9 valuation in 29 minutes), he has posted 6.8 points, 3.7 rebounds and 6.7 valuation in 15:12 minutes across 11 ACB games. He went 0/4 from the line and fouled out against Zaragoza. Rubén Guerrero from Coviran Granada sat out Sunday, while Artem Pustovyi grabbed one rebound.

General manager Francesc Solana plans to add a scoring guard this week—an ACB veteran not currently in the league, ruling out Trabzonspor's Dae Dae Grant. Aixàs acknowledged summer planning flaws, expressed full support for coach Joan Plaza, and urged better road results before Valencia Basket. The club is not in crisis but must improve its non-EU slots.

The second team, We Singular, leads Group 3 in Primera Catalana's preliminary phase after a 73-94 win at Masnou, with Bruno Bartolomé scoring 21 points, Alexis Bartolomé 16 and Toi Gabriel 15. Aaron Ganal contributed 13. The women's team crushed BAC Agramunt 72-28.
