While Limoges CSP has gotten its new coach Dario Gjergja, the club doesn’t rule out making slight modifications to its 2025-2026 professional roster. Thus, sports director Crawford Palmer is gathering information about various players. Mentioned in recent days in Limousin while being clubless and participating in SLUC Nancy’s preparation, Carl Ponsar (2.03 m, 28 years) has a profile that interests the club, although his arrival isn’t currently planned.

Justin Lewis’s position is not threatened
The Cercle Saint-Pierre has a complete group with 11 professional players but currently has several injured players and one absent, Leon Stergar, still at EuroBasket 2025 with Slovenia. New recruit at position 4, young Justin Lewis (2.01 m, 23 years) needs time to adapt, as evidenced by his poor performance against Le Mans (-5 evaluation) on Wednesday, September 3. But currently, Limoges refutes any possibility of his departure.
The Limoges tournament, taking place from Friday 12 to Sunday 14 September, should provide more insight to the technical staff and Crawford Palmer to determine whether some roster adjustments are needed or not.
Limoges CSP’s 2025-2026 roster:
- Backcourt (1/2): Frank Mason III, Vincent Amsellem and Armaan Franklin
- Wings (2/3/4): Leon Stergar, Nicolas Lang, Shawn Tanner and Mamadou Guisse
- Frontcourt (4/5): Justin Lewis, Kenny Baptiste, Nikola Jovanovic and Gavin Ware
