Marcio Santos is set to sign with Maccabi Tel Aviv, according to Buzz Sport sources close to the player. After a solid season with Ratiopharm Ulm in the BBL and EuroCup, the 2.04m Brazilian center is poised to make the leap to the EuroLeague, filling a key role for the Israeli club.
Strong Performance in EuroCup and BBL
This season, Santos averaged 7.6 points, 3.2 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 0.4 steals, 0.4 blocks, and 7.4 PIR in the EuroCup with Ulm. He also featured in the BBL Finals, though his team fell to Bayern Munich, showcasing his potential on a high stage.
Strategic Fit for Maccabi’s Frontcourt
The 22-year-old center’s size and versatility will bolster Maccabi Tel Aviv’s frontcourt, especially after the departures of Rivero and Williams. His EuroCup experience and defensive presence make him a valuable addition as the team prepares for the 2025-26 EuroLeague season.
