MARK St Fort is on the move once again in the Japanese B-League and signed with his third team this season.

St Fort signed with the Hiroshima Dragonflies for the remainder of the 2020- 21 season. Through 14 games this season, St Fort is averaging 10.6 points and 3.8 rebounds per game on 70 percent shooting from the field and 43 percent shooting from three-point range. “Hiroshima Dragnflies has given me this opportunity and I thank them very much for their support. I am going to do my best to contribute to this team for as long as possible and help them be successful,” St Fort said in an official release issued by the team.

Hiroshima is 4-12 on the season. “I am looking forward to playing in front of Dragonflies fans.”

St Fort began the season with SeaHorses Mikawa but was released after just two games with the club. He went on to sign with the Niigata Albirex where he had his most productive stretch of the season where he was the team’s leading scorer in four games. He spent last season in Japan’s third division, the B3-League with the Saitama Broncos where he averaged 17.9 points and 9.8 rebounds per game. The B3-League has 11 teams made up of de facto semi-professional teams.
