Dan Clark will remain in Spain next season after joining newly-promoted ACB side Gipuzkoa, as reported by Gigantes.

The GB forward has spent most of his pro career in the Spanish top-flight and joined Murcia late last season having begun the 2016-17 campaign in Macedonia.

Clark is a leading figure on the GB Senior Men’s team as they prepare for EuroBasket 2017 – which starts on Friday – his fourth major tournament with the National Team.

The experienced 28-year-old produced a double-double in GB’s only home international of the summer against Greece last weekend.

Gipuzkoa made their ACB return having won the LEB Gold league title last season with a 25-9 record sealing top spot.

Clark becomes the latest Brit to sign in Spain’s top-flight following the recent announcements of Luke Nelson, Gabe Olaseni and Jules Dang Akodo.

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
