Former [b]Lukoil Academic[/b] star and NBA player [b]Priest Lauderdale[/b] will play in Iran after agreeing a contract with [b]Saba Battery[/b] from Irani Superleague.
[b]Lauderdale[/b] arrived in Bulgaria in 2002 to play for [b]Lukoil Academic[/b]. Everybody was amazed by his highness but he also proved his abilities and had a key role in the team.
During his first season in the team he and his teammates won FIBA Champions Cup South Conference as [b]Priest[/b] scored the last free throw of the game as [b]Lukoil Academic[/b] won against [b]Aris[/b] 81 - 80. Later though those two teams met again in 1/4 finals of FIBA Eurocup and those time the greeks took revenge and eliminated our team. In 18 games in FIBA Eurocup he averaged 19 point and 12 rebounds. In 2003 he became also Champion and Cup of Bulgaria holder with the squad and was named MVP of Bulgarian league.
Next 2003-2004 season [b]Lukoil Academic[/b] was participating in the ULEB Cup and [b]PL[/b] was once again one of the team's top players.
The Bulgarians went out in the 1/8 finals of the competition losing to [b]Lietuvos Rytas[/b] but perhaps the most memorable moment of the season was the victory over [b]Real Madrid[/b] in Sofia 93 - 91 after an amazing comeback. In 11 matches in the ULEB Cup [b]Priest[/b] had an average of 19.3 points and 11.3 rebounds per game. He again won the Cup and the League title in Bulgaria with [b]Lukoil Academic[/b] and played in the All Star game in Varna.
In the autumn of 2004 [b]Lauderdale[/b] gained Bulgarian citizenship and continued to be in [b]Lukoil Academic[/b] uniform. Later in December though he left the club.
[b]Saba Battery[/b] is the champion in Iranian Superleague for 2004 and 2006 and winner of Teheran Cup for 2006.
Last season [b]Lauderdale[/b] played in Saudi Arabia for [b]Al Ittihad Jeddah[/b] and now he will enjoy a new adventure in Asia, this time in Iran.
