One of the Spaniards with the most options for the future in the United States of those who remain at the gates of the big league has starred in one of the most important changes of the holiday period. Great Osobor has left Utah State after a breakthrough season to enter a new project with the Washington Huskies.
The 21-year-old player from Tudela (Navarra) is in the news not only for being one of the most promising university students who were in the NCAA transfer portal but also for the amount for which he changes teams. According to ESPN It will be up to two million dollars that Osobor will take to the current account during 2024/25 thanks to the so-called NIL (the acronym in English for Name, Image, Likeness; a transfer to what is commonly known as image rights). The top college competition in the United States is expanding the limits in terms of player rights and how much is charged for them and Osobor, with three years of experience, will be one of the beneficiaries. The amounts are rising from one million to retain kids who are in a similar position to yours.
Washington’s fields have had illustrious players in the past. Isaiah Thomas and Brandon Roy were trained there, the German legend Detlef Schrempf and other notable current players such as Jaden McDaniels and Dejounte Murray stepped there. Their brightest star was Markelle Fultz, who with them became number one in his promotion seven years ago.

Osobor is semi-unknown in Spain because he has not been linked to the lower categories of the National Team. He has reached maturity a few years later. He, with the option of Great Britain as a secondary, has expressed his intention to play with the red and gold if the call comes. We are talking about a player with a strong profile, who develops his action within the perimeter thanks to his 2.03 meters and good physical conditioning. He had been at Montana State the first two years, but it was at Utah State where he broke all of his records: 17’7 points, 9’1 rebounds, 1’4 blocks and 1’3 steals. He is the player of the year in his conference, the Mountain West, and an emergence on the list of talents to watch solely thanks to his great performance. “Washington is going to help me realize my full potential,” the player declared. This confirms that he is giving up the 2024 Draft, for which he had entered some predictions, and is focused on finishing his training period on a high. The move has another reason: Great’s path is the same one his coach, Danny Sprinkle, has taken.
