Pierre Darrell Bland (born August 18, 1992 ) is an American basketball player .

career

Before going to college, Bland played basketball at Robert E. Lee High School in Jacksonville , Florida . This was followed by two years at Florida State College at Jacksonville (FSCJ) and at Purdue University Fort Wayne (IPFW) in the state of Indiana . In his university final season 2013/14, the development player achieved an average of 9.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.7 ball wins in 36 appearances.

Bland's first stop as a professional basketball player was the Brandenburg club SSV Lokomotive Bernau . In his first two years in Bernau he played in the regional league. In 2015/16 he led the SSV Lok to be promoted to the 2nd Bundesliga ProB . This season he was named Player of the Year in the Regionalliga Nord by the basketball service eurobasket.com .

After promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga ProB he stayed in Bernau and was also a top performer in the third highest German division. In the course of the 2016/17 season he averaged 17.2 points, 6.3 assists and 1.8 ball wins per encounter. All three values ​​were top among the locomotive crew. His 5.3 rebounds per game meant the second best value.

In the summer of 2017, Bland accepted an offer from Artland Dragons from the small town of Quakenbrück in Lower Saxony and thus ran for a ProB competitor from Bernau in the 2017/18 season. With an average of 15.6 points per game, he was the best scorer in the Artländer, and his 7.2 assists per game were the highest in the league. Although Quakenbrück's athletic advancement was not successful, Bland and the team made it into the 2nd Bundesliga ProA , as the Artländer took over the license from the Bundesliga relegated Rockets . One day after the commitment to start the second Bundesliga ProA in the 2018/19 season, the Quakenbrücker Blands announced further commitment. With 12.9 points per game, he was the third best scorer of the Artländer in the 2nd Bundesliga ProA in the 2018/19 season, and his average of six assists per match meant the team's maximum.
