Heads and tails during the season
It has not been an easy season for the player from Cádiz, one of the strongest promises in Spanish basketball, who has just turned 18.
On the positive side, his debut in the Endesa League, an option that allowed him to face the best professional players for the first time, despite his young age.
The downside is the demotion of your club, Movistar Estudiantes that this past season has not been able to avoid going down to LEB Oro.
