Former Maccabi Tel Aviv Player Jasiel Rivero Signs One-Month Deal With Valencia Basket
Cuban center Jasiel Rivero, who previously played for Maccabi Tel Aviv, has signed a one-month temporary contract with Spanish club Valencia Basket. Rivero has been training with the team for the past week and will participate in their preseason games. The deal aims to give him an opportunity to impress during the preparation and the start of the EuroLeague season, potentially earning a permanent contract.
Rivero's previous season was challenging, marked by injuries, and he played limited minutes in just nine EuroLeague games, averaging 4.8 points and 1.7 rebounds. His earlier stint with Valencia Basket, his first in the EuroLeague, saw him average 9.4 points and 3.5 rebounds per game.
Valencia Basket announced the signing, noting it as a temporary measure. Rivero will aim to secure his place in the EuroLeague with the Spanish club, which also includes participation in the Spanish Super Cup, the EuroLeague, and the Spanish League.
