The Halifax Rainmen have added two former NBAers for the upcoming season.

Eddie Robinson, a guard-forward who played five seasons in the NBA with the Charlotte Hornets and Chicago Bulls, and shooting guard Rodney Buford, who suited up for a handful of different teams in a five-year NBA career, were announced as signings by the team at a press conference Monday morning at the Nova Scotia Sport Hall of Fame.

Robinson and Buford both told a large media contingent they are looking forward to spending the season in Halifax and helping the team win a championship in the new National Basketball League of Canada.
