The Italy Cup week is the one during which Curtis Jerrells turns 27. Born on February 5, 1987, the Texan played for the Baylor University, in Waco and then was part of the San Antonio Spurs organization although his career was developed mostly in Europe, in Partizan, at Fenerbahce, Besiktas and now in Milano where his efficiency increased exponentially during the last month. His birthday is going to be spent preparing for the Italy Cup quarterfinal against Sassari, a team he couldn’t play against in the league because of a back injury. Happy Birthday Man.
