The St. John’s Edge have added a fourth player to their roster for the 2018-19 National Basketball League of Canada season, but it’s the first newcomer to the team.
Gatineau, Que., native Kevin Zabo has signed a one-year contract with the Edge.
A point guard, the 6-2, 180-pound Zabo spent the last two years with NCAA Division 1 Kent State University. Last season, in 34 games with the Golden Flashes, Zabo averaged 13 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists in nearly 29 minutes per game.
Cabo had begun his collegiate career at San Diego State University, but transferred to a community college after one year before joining Kent State.
St. John’s has already re-signed guards Desmond Lee and Jarryn Skeete, while Edge star and NBL Canada MVP Carl English recently announced he’ll play another season.
Skeet, English and now Zabo all are Canadians, which helps St. John’s with regards to the NBL Canada requirement that teams have five domestic players on their 12-man active rosters.
Cabo would also help address a hole created when point guard Coron Williams, an important player for the Edge over the last half of their inaugural campaign, signed with a team in Argentina.
