Alberto Abalde (15/12/1995, Ferrol, La Coruña) will boast Real Madrid‘s outside game for the next five season. The 24-year-old Spanish international is one of the brightest young things on the European basketball scene and checks in at the club fresh from having been the fourth top performing player in the ACB Final Phase, having posted 14.3 points and a PIR of 17.8.
Abalde, a forward who measures in at 2.02 m, combines physical power, which sees him excel in defense and on rebounds, with natural offensive talent. He’s very good in and around the basket, is a threat on one-on-ones and has a good shot from the outside, as evidence by the 42.5% shooting success rate he recorded in the league this term.
