The Las Vegas Riders have officially signed rising star forward Marcus Bennett to a three-year deal worth $42 million, marking one of the most exciting moves in the franchise’s young history. Bennett, known for his explosive scoring, defensive grit, and electrifying athleticism, is expected to become a cornerstone of the Riders’ future.

General Manager Carla Thompson praised the signing, stating, “Marcus is the type of player who can change the direction of a franchise. His leadership, work ethic, and on-court intensity are exactly what we need as we continue to build a championship-caliber team here in Las Vegas.”

Bennett, 25, averaged 21.3 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 3.8 assists last season. Coming off a breakout year with the Atlanta Storm, he quickly became one of the most sought-after free agents on the market.

“I’m excited to be part of the Las Vegas Riders organization and to help bring a title to this city,” said Bennett at the press conference. “The energy here is incredible. I can’t wait to get to work.”

The Riders, entering their fourth season in the league, are looking to build momentum and make their deepest playoff run yet. With Bennett now on board, Las Vegas fans have plenty of reason to believe.
