Dwight Powell, the new transfer of the Fenerbahçe Tarfin Men's Basketball Team, stated in a statement to the club television that the conversation he had with Tarık Biberovic played a critical role in his decision to join the yellow-navy blue squad.

Dwight Powell, the 35-year-old power forward newly added to Fenerbahçe Tarfin's roster, stated that he spent a busy pace between the hotel and the training gym during his first days in Istanbul, and that his teammates and coaching staff provided great support to him during the adaptation process.

Stating that playing in the EuroLeague had interested him since his childhood, the Canadian basketball player mentioned that he spoke with his European coach in his country and that the conversation he had with Tarık Biberovic, who previously wore the yellow-navy blue jersey, persuaded him.
