HLA Alicante and Delaney Blaylock (United States, 1997) have agreed that the American player will defend the Lugo jersey next season.

Blaylock, 196 cm tall, came to Alicante after a great season in the Portuguese league, where he finished the championship as the second top scorer with 18.7 points per game. The shooting guard became one of the best players in the league in the ranks of CD Povoa.

The American guard averaged 18.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 18 games in total. Before coming to the Portuguese league, Blaylock played in the Ukrainian first division and in Ireland.

Descriptions of Rafa Monclova

“Blaylock is a player who comes from being the second top scorer in the Portuguese league. He can score goals in different situations, both in the open field and in 5×5 situations that hit the basket hard. He also stands out in his three-point shooting, where he achieved a 40% success rate. Delaney will give us a leap in quality on a physical level on the roster. He can play on the hoop, he’ll help us rebound and he’s solid on defense. We are lucky because he is a great player and although clubs are interested we were able to convince him and we were excited about the club’s project. He is very excited to come to Spain to play.”
