Giovan Oniangue Returns to Levallois After Nine Years
Levallois has made a significant signing to cap off their offseason moves. Following the retention of eight key players from their NM1 promotion squad and the additions of Tom Digbeu, Kezza Giffa, and Hugo Kamdem, the Metropolitans have announced the signing of Giovan Oniangue for the next two seasons.
Having developed at Paris-Levallois and previously winning the French Espoirs championship, the 3-4 position player is returning to where his career began, now under the Metropolitans banner. This marks his second stint in the second division, having previously experienced promotion with Orléans in 2019.
Last season, Oniangue averaged 8 points, 2.6 rebounds, and an evaluation of 6.7 in 24 minutes per game in the Betclic Élite. Despite these contributions, his team, SQBB, was unable to maintain its position in France's top basketball league.

Levallois saved the best for last. After retaining eight key players from their NM1 promotion team and bringing in Tom Digbeu, Kezza Giffa, and Hugo Kamdem, the Metropolitans have announced the signing of Giovan Oniangue for the next two seasons.
Having been developed at Paris-Levallois and previously crowned French Espoirs champion, the 3-4 position player is returning to where it all started, now under the Metropolitans' name. This will only be his second experience in the second tier, having experienced promotion with Orléans in 2019.
Last season, his 8 points and 2.6 rebounds for an evaluation of 6.7 in 24 minutes in the Betclic Élite were not enough to keep SQBB in the top French league.
