Casademont Zaragoza has reached an agreement with Nicolás Brussino (33 years old, 2.05m) for the Argentine international small forward to return to the red-and-white jersey. He signs a two-year deal.
Nico Brussino returns to Zaragoza after five seasons in Gran Canaria. The Las Parejas (Argentina) native was part of our club for two memorable seasons: the first, when the team finished 3rd in Liga Endesa only halted by the pandemic; the second, the historic bronze medal in the Basketball Champions League won at the Final Eight in Nizhny Novgorod.
The Argentine's character was always appreciated by the 'Red Tide' and he became an important player in Casademont Zaragoza's schemes. During his time in Gran Canaria, the Argentine established himself as an important small forward in Liga Endesa, and also won the Eurocup title in 2023.
Last season, Brussino averaged 10.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 11.8 in efficiency rating in the 34 Liga Endesa games he played.
Also noteworthy is his track record with the Argentina national team. Nico has been an important piece of the so-called "Next Generation". He was part of the team that won the silver medal at the 2019 World Cup, in addition to competing in the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and several continental tournaments.
