Spanish basketball is in luck facing the bright future ahead. There are high expectations surrounding the news that may arise from the NBA Draft 2026, in which up to three players could make their way to the NBA, with all media attention focused on Aday Mara for his feat as the NCAA champion.
After witnessing Aldama's consolidation as an important player and the successful landing of Hugo González, who has exceeded expectations, Spanish basketball eagerly anticipates the possibility of an increase in representatives next season. All signs point to Aday Mara being selected in the first round, with strong chances of becoming a lottery pick, but there are possibilities of him not being the only Spaniard to enter the NBA next season.
Names like Sergio de Larrea and Baba Miller are also gaining momentum to be selected in the second round. The Valencia Basket point guard has caught the attention of several franchises, yet doubts linger about whether he will leave his current situation in a team that is a strong contender for Euroleague glory to join the NBA without guarantees of significance. A different scenario unfolds for Miller, who has completed his college cycle and will look to convince a franchise of his worth, possibly entering the realm of temporary contracts, Summer League, and G-League before determining whether he fits into the NBA or returns to Europe.
