Brimah aids team to make Playoffs after mid season surge

October 7, 2021

Acquiring Ghana Center Amida Brimah midway through the 2021 BSN League proved a masterstroke for Mets De Guaynabo as it spurred the team’s run to make it to the playoffs in Puerto Rico’s top Basketball league.

Despite falling 71-79 to Brujos Guayama with Amida Brimah inactive for the game, it was enough for Mets to make the playoffs thanks to its 17 wins and 15 loss record.

The playoffs are scheduled to commence on Sunday, October 10 with the top four ranked teams in Groups A and B respectively set to compete across board.

The top ranked teams in each group plays the fourth ranked team in either group with the third placed teams taking on the second placed teams and vice versa.

Brimah signed for Mets after he was waived by Indiana Pacers following his brief stint to close out the 2020-2021 NBA season. In seven games in Mets uniform, the 6 foot 10 inch defender has averaged 12.5 points and eight rebounds.
