Dolomiti Energia Trento has signed American forward Peyton Aldridge for the 2025-26 season, the club announced on Saturday.
Aldridge (2.03 meters, 28 years old) returns to Italy after six seasons in Turkiye, including a EuroCup campaign with Bahcesehir College Istanbul. He spent the last four seasons with Petkim Spor, for which he averaged 6.6 points on 45.1% three-point shooting and 5.0 rebounds in the Turkish League.
The forward previously played in the Italian top flight with Vanoli Cremona during the 2018-19 season, which was his first as a professional. A product of Davidson College, Aldridge starred for four seasons and was chosen as the Atlantic 10 Conference Co-Player of the Year in 2018.
“With Peyton, we add experience, offensive quality, and basketball IQ,” Coach Massimo Cancellieri said. “He’s a consistent and enthusiastic player who’s committed to the team—something he’s shown throughout his solid career.”
