Real Madrid agree terms to sign Joventut point guard Nico Laprovittola Liga Endesa He will play at Los Blancos next season

Divina Seguros Joventut point guard Nico Laprovittola will play at Real Madrid next season, as Los Blancos have agreed terms to sign the Argentine on free.

The Liga Endesa MVP was the league's top scorer in the regular season with 17.2 points per game and the second-best assist provider with an average of 6.4 per match.

Laprovittola's response to being named MVP

Madrid were interested in signing Laprovittola during the 2018/19 campaign, but Joventut had set a high price tag for the player.

The 29-year-old's contract ends this summer, when he will arrive at Pablo Laso's side as a complement to Facundo Campazzo, his compatriot, and Sergio Llull in the guard positions.

After failing to replace Luka Doncic adequately last season, the addition of Laprovittola will see Madrid once again become one of the favourites to win next year's EuroLeague crown after coming up short in 2018/19.
