Xavi Rabaseda Signs with SD Espanyol After a Year Inactive

Former FIBA World Cup champion Xavi Rabaseda is returning to the hardwood to compete in Spain’s amateur divisions, taking his 15 seasons of Liga ACB experience to SD Espanyol in Tercera FEB following a year away from the game.

The veteran guard-forward, who lifted the World Cup trophy with the Spanish national team in 2022, will lace up for the newly unified project under the SD Espanyol banner. The club has been competing in the Tercera FEB division following an institutional integration this past summer between SD Espanyol and CB Cornellà.
