Two more years with Melo!

For the graduate of the University of Maryland, who has played in many countries around the world, the past season was a real breakthrough. Trimble received the championship title for the first time in his career, played in the All-Star Game, and was recognized as MVP of the VTB United League playoffs. Melo is CSKA's top scorer last season (14.6 points) and second in assists (3.9). At the same time, in the final series against UNICS, the guard proved himself to be the team leader, averaging 20.0 points per game with 3.0 assists and 2.5 steals.

Andreas Pistiolis, CSKA head coach:

I am very happy to retain Melo on our roster. He has been a crucial part of the team function, and a key factor of our success. I am looking forward to continuing our cooperation for the next years.

Melo Trimble, CSKA guard:

Number 6 is back and I’m thankful for the opportunity to wear CSKA uniform again for the next two years with coach Andreas and the rest of the organization!
