The development of Hugo González inspires hope in the hearts of Real Madrid and Spanish supporters. The Madrid forward made social media waves in just two years with his performances in the white club's youth tiers before dominating Europe with the white junior and making his first-team debut under the guidance of Chus Mateo. All of this happened at a dizzying pace, prompting the NBA to start keeping an eye on the white young team for the near future.
There are still two years until the draft of the class of 2025, but in the first predictions in the United States the name of Hugo González already appears in the first positions of his promotion in the pools launched by Bleacher Report, which places the forward from Madrid in sixth place in a draft that heads what many see as the new phenomenon to follow in American basketball, Cooper Flag.
"At 17 years old, he stands out for his great size and the fluidity of his movements and the execution of his skills. A base to be a great three-and-D is already visible. In addition, González has a very well-planned shot and has achieved tremendous ratios of steals and blocks in all scenarios, demonstrating speed of feet, anticipation and aggressiveness", points out the analysis of the player.
"Now with Real Madrid, developing alongside decorated European veterans and former NBA players in the ACB and Euroleague, González finds himself in a favorable development environment." This is how the prestigious American portal describes Hugo.
Hugo is the latest product from a factory that already boasts of its new jewel not only in Spain. He became known to the European elite after being named MVP of the prestigious Adidas Next Generation in Munich, where he earned a ticket to the final phase held in Kaunas. Now he has already become a regular in the first team, averaging three points in the first seven games of this season.
