The Yellow Jackets are now a part of the ABA under the ownership of Antjuan "Tjuan Benafactor" Washington and Averill "Ace" Pippens - both with backgrounds in the entertainment industry.
Bringing in Krauser is a good move by the Yellow Jackets as they have begun to advertise tickets for the upcoming season. Krauser is no stranger to playing basketball professionally in Pittsburgh. He was a former member of the Pittsburgh Xplosion, formerly of the CBA.
The season starts for the Yellow Jackets on November 8th. There are also open tryouts this Saturday, August 23rd, for all those who have the ability or desire to play at Krauser's level.
