Valencia Basket Signs Spanish Guard Mario Saint-Supéry for Four Seasons

Valencia Basket has secured the signing of promising Spanish point guard Mario Saint-Supéry on a four-year deal, extending through 2030. The 20-year-old talent, who honed his skills in the youth ranks of Unicaja Málaga, brings a wealth of experience from both the Spanish league system and the U.S. collegiate circuit.

Saint-Supéry's basketball journey began at Unicaja, where he made early debuts in the Liga Endesa and the Basketball Champions League at just 15 years old. He was subsequently loaned to UBU Tizona Burgos and later played for Baxi Manresa. With Manresa, he appeared in 33 Liga Endesa games, averaging 8.3 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game, earning an average valuation of 8.5. He also participated in twelve Basketball Champions League games for the Catalan club.

His impressive development attracted the attention of American universities, leading him to play for the Gonzaga Bulldogs in the NCAA this past season. There, he averaged 8.6 points, shot 40.3% from three-point range, and dished out 3.8 assists per game, achieving an average valuation of 11. Saint-Supéry has also represented Spain at various youth levels, earning MVP honors at the 2022 U16 European Championship, and made his senior national team debut in November 2024 at the age of 18.

With this signing, Valencia Basket, under coach Xavi Albert, adds a homegrown player to its roster, bolstering the team with Saint-Supéry's playmaking abilities and scoring potential.
