Washington State Men Add Veteran Spanish Guard Adria Rodriguez

News summary

Washington State men's basketball has added veteran Spanish guard Adria Rodriguez to its 2025-2026 roster, marking the ninth international player signed by the program this offseason. Rodriguez, a 6-foot-4 combo guard from Barcelona, Spain, brings significant professional experience from three seasons with Lucentum Alicante in Spain's second division, where he averaged 8.1 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.4 steals per game last season while shooting 52% overall and 38% from three-point range. His experience and defensive prowess are expected to provide immediate impact and valuable perimeter defense for a team that has a relatively young roster with only one senior. Washington State finished the previous season with a 19-15 record and will compete in the West Coast Conference for one final season before rejoining the Pac-12 in 2026-2027. Alongside Rodriguez, the Cougars have added other experienced transfers and will rely on returning players and incoming freshmen to strengthen the squad. This strategic mix aims to bolster the team's competitiveness in the upcoming season.
