This is how Trey Lyles plays, the big hit in Real Madrid's market

Trey Liles is set to join Real Madrid from a successful spell in the NBA, making him a top-tier reinforcement for Sergio Scariolo's team for the 2025/26 season. After missing out on many opportunities in the best league in the world, the Whites seem to have finally struck gold.

Over the past four seasons, he played a significant role in the rotation of the Sacramento Kings, where he settled after joining at the end of the 2021/22 season. His performance in the 2022/23 season earned him a two-year, $16 million contract, showing the franchise's trust in his role as a reliable power forward off the bench.

In his last two NBA seasons, he played 127 games with averages of 6.9 points and 4.5 rebounds, standing out for his offensive versatility and ability to stretch the floor with his outside threat (43% field goal percentage and 36% from three-point range). Furthermore, his experience allowed him to play as a center in "small-ball" lineups, providing highly valued tactical solutions in the league.

With over 220 games played with Sacramento—more than any other team in his ten-year NBA career—Liles found continuity and consistency there, becoming a dependable player capable of performing in crucial moments.

His arrival at Real Madrid brings a modern interior profile to the squad: physical, with good shooting from the perimeter, and proven experience at the highest level. A reinforcement that fits into Sergio Scariolo's philosophy and raises the ambitions of the white team in all competitions for the upcoming season.
