Expat Hoops Episode 051 with Alex Renfroe
In episode 51, we sat down with Belmont alum and current San Pablo Burgos star Alex Renfroe. Alex turned pro in 2009 and has played all across Europe.
He started in Latvia with VEF Riga, and got his pro career off to a terrific start. Within a few short years, he would be at the top of European basketball, playing in EuroLeague for three different clubs from 2014 through 2017. In the 2017 campaign, he was teammates with friend of the pod Shane Lawal at Spanish powerhouse Barcelona. He would be back in EuroLeague in 2019 for Zenit St. Petersburg with friend of the pod Will Thomas.
Alex has been with San Pablo Burgos in Spain's Liga ACB since 2020, and he loves it. From playing in a great country like Spain, an elite league that suits his favorite way to play, and the fans of Burgos, he's clearly found a home in Spain.
