Windrunners Bid Farewell to Franchise Icons, Set Sights on Championship

The Windrunners have officially parted ways with franchise legends Jed Summers, Gibson Kalumba, and José Abiega, marking a major shift in the team’s history. Kalumba, the team’s all-time leading scorer, leaves behind an unmatched legacy, having averaged 21.5 points per game, played a record 156 games, and scored 1,500 more points than any other player in team history. Summers, a dominant force in the paint, anchored the team’s defense for years, but with the emergence of Peng Li Mei, the Windrunners felt it was time to move in a new direction. To honor their contributions, both Kalumba and Summers were inducted into the Windrunners Hall of Fame.

The team also made the difficult choice to part ways with José Abiega, the franchise’s all-time assist leader, to make room for rising stars. Unfortunately, Abiega fell just four games short of the 100-game requirement for Hall of Fame eligibility, but his impact on the team will not be forgotten. Despite these departures, the Windrunners remain undefeated this season, and with key new additions, they are poised to capture the League title, ushering in a new era of dominance.
