Milton Keynes Breakers are delighted to announce that Chris Tawiah has re-signed with the club for the 2025/26 season.
Back at Bletchley Leisure Centre for another year, the Milton Keynes native has been a vital part of our success over the last few seasons, playing a key role as the team climbed out of Division 3, all the way to a place in British Championship Basketball.
Before joining Breakers, Tawiah has played in seven of European basketball’s top leagues, as well as featuring in elite competitions like the FIBA Europe Cup and Basketball Champions League.
A powerful presence in the paint all last season, it was notable that the 6’9” big man’s contribution spiked following Jordan Spencer’s return to Milton Keynes. Their effective two-man game resulted in Tawiah averaging 16.17 points and 8.9 rebounds per game with his running mate back in the lineup.
Keeping that duo together was certainly a priority for our new Head Coach, who was delighted to agree a new deal with the fan favourite. “It’s huge that Chris is returning for us,” said Ben Stanley, “he knows the city so well and has put so much time into the club which is something we really value.
“His presence as a dominant big man is known around the league. We know he’ll be a huge help for us and I think there’s even more in the tank than he showed last season. I’m looking forward to working with a player that has that much experience.”
As for Tawiah, his message was simple. “I’m looking forward to next season,” he said. “A lot about it feels new, however two things remain the same; we have the best supporters in the league, and we play to win every competition that we are in!”
Everyone at the club agrees, and wishes Chris every success in the 2025/26 season.
