Draelon Clayton Burns (born October 7, 1985) is an American professional basketball player for Shinshu Brave Warriors in Japan.[1] Standing at 6 ft 5 in (1.96 m), he primarily plays as point guard or shooting guard.
Burns joined Úrvalsdeild karla club Keflavík in January 2010 and went on to average 21.2 points and 4.2 assists in 10 regular season games. He helped Keflavík to the Úrvalsdeild finals in April that year[2] but the ankle injury in the second game[3][4] forced him to miss the rest of the series[5] which Keflavík lost 2–3 against Snæfell.[6]
