Baron, Tigran...you guys seem like you have info on Armenian Teams. Any links for Armenian Pro Ball?

A friend of mine has a website to market himself

To my knowledge, basketball is, to put it kindly, ehum...not the sport in which we excel most.

The national team is very weak...and I'm not even aware if there is some sort of premier league going on in Armenia.

You'd probably find stronger armenian teams in Lebanon, such as AGBU Antranig or Homentmen (though I don't know what they have been up to lately).

they have a few worth players, especially a big man named Armen Hovanessian I believe. He's 7'1 250 and the Lakers could use him imagine that, an Armenian backing up Shaq, in LA...they'll have davul zurna during the introductions lol ok back to reality now

Hello everyone,

havnet posted in a while, but I love this topic.
Ok there is a very decent number of Armenians playing in Europe, and some in the US in the developmental league if I am correct. The best players we've had overall have been from the U.S.

The coolest thing is the Pan Armenian games that happen every two years in Armenia, the last 3 winners have been from the west coast, well mens winners. last years was HMEM Glendale, teh previous two were back to back AGBU Valley, Lezarian was playing on that team. Great atmosphere, been to one game, oh all the games are held in Armenia.
