Valencia Signs TJ Shorts to Revive Career After Disappointing Season
Valencia, fresh off its historic 2025/26 season as Spanish league champions and EuroLeague Final Four debutants, has announced the signing of guard TJ Shorts. The talented player joins the team following a disappointing season with Panathinaikos, aiming to regain the form that once made him one of Europe's top point guards.
Valencia is now focused on building its roster and preparing for the upcoming season to sustain its recent success. Shorts' official signing was announced in an unusual manner, with the club posting a simple "Thank you and good luck" message on social media.
Last season, Shorts averaged 7.8 points, 3.1 assists, and 1.4 rebounds in 16.1 minutes per EuroLeague game, a significant drop from his impressive 2024/25 debut EuroLeague season where he averaged 18.7 points, 7.5 assists, and 2.7 rebounds. Valencia hopes Shorts will help continue their momentum and return to his previous high level of play.
