Physics Torres closed his squad for the 2010-11 season with thearrival of American Jason Underwood, who played last season inToyama Grouse, the BJ League (Japan).

With 2.02m, this extreme-post's main characteristic is its physical power, making it very strong in fighting near the table. Getting agood average rebounds per game, Underwood also has good sized release of half-distance. The player born in October 1984represents an increase of the weight of the team of TorresVedras, solving one of the gaps in the squad.

Jason Underwood began his college career at St. ClairCommunity College, reaching 14.2 points and 9.1 rebounds asaverage in his sophomore season. After a year unable to playdue to transfer, completed their training during the 2005-06season at Centenary College of Louisiana, where in 23 gamesmanaged to release a percentage above 50%.

As a professional, the U.S. accounted for two teams from Vancouver, the Titans and the Volcano, then experimenting withhis basketball in Asia last season.
