Robert Lavon Ferguson (born March 18, 1985 in Cape Coral , Florida ) is an American basketball player.

career

Ferguson played basketball at Mariner High School in his native Cape Coral , Florida, and enrolled at Saint Joseph's University in Pennsylvania in 2003 . In the 2003/04 season he did not participate in the game operation of the local basketball team and was in the squad from 2004. When he left college in 2008, he was the player who had played the most games (135) in the history of Saint Joseph's basketball team and was 26th in the university's “eternal basketball list” with 1258 points. In his senior year 2007/08 Ferguson was honored with an award for exemplary sportsmanship ("Harry Merrill Sportsmanship Award").

In his first season as a professional player, Ferguson was under contract with the Giants Nördlingen from the German 2nd Bundesliga ProA in 2009/10 and scored an average of 14.4 points and 7.6 rebounds per match. He started the 2010/11 season at the Uruguayan first division defensor Sporting Club before returning to Germany in November 2010 and hired by the Crailsheim Merlins in the ProA. With 7.9 points and 3.4 rebounds per game, his mean values ​​were well below those of his first season in Germany.

2011 Ferguson ran again for Defensor from Uruguay's capital Montevideo , in December 2011 he moved to the Icelandic first division club KR Reykjavík , where he was under contract until the end of the season and with whom he reached the semi-finals of the playoffs.

In 2012/13 he averaged 5.8 points and 4.5 rebounds per game for SC Rasta Vechta and became ProA champion with the Lower Saxony. In the following 2013/14 season he was in the service of another German second division club, BG Karlsruhe , and achieved an average of 11.3 points and 4.6 rebounds in twelve missions until January 2014. He then fell out with knee problems that later made surgery necessary. The Karlsruhe team was relegated from the ProA at the end of the season.

For the 2014/15 season he was signed by the Hamburg Towers (also ProA) and was thus a member of the first squad in the history of the Hanseatic League. He acted as team captain in Hamburg and made a name for himself as an experienced leading player with a knack for decisive hits. Ferguson left Hamburg after the 2016/17 season and moved to 1. FC Baunach within the 2. Bundesliga ProA . In June 2018 he ended his professional career due to knee problems and then played in the amateur area at the regional division TTL Bamberg.
