The talent of Brindisi Matteo Spanish is under the control of the NBA scouts and promises to have an interesting position in the next draft 2022. The year he is playing as a starter in Cremona is useful to accelerate the growth path, as the 19 year old player himself tells Dario Recchia for the South Newsstand. Here are some jokes.
Cremona. Mine is a growing experience, both from a personal and a team point of view. I am improving on many things and I am happy with everyone. Then there is Peppe Poeta who helps me a lot, encouraging me to do better and better.
Galbiati. I am in a super company and we had already talked to it the previous year. The coach took a big risk with me, since I had no experience in the pros. Now, beyond the ranking that we will try to improve in the second round, I personally believe that I have more awareness than a few months ago and that I have grown to be able to give my contribution to the team.
Difficulty in League A? Given the very high level of all the teams, if you are not always fully concentrated, just a moment and you change the game. You always have to make the right choices and I’m trying to work to always be ready.
Mike Schmitz (ESPN) has called you “the best international playmaker of the next draft”. A great responsibility. I’ve always had responsibilities and I’m happy with his words. However, I continue calmly on my way, aware that we must be happy when things are going well but we must not be discouraged when things are not going as they should.
Future. I am a Real player and my hope is to play in Madrid. But America would be a beautiful thing!
