Women’s Basketball in Spain: Daeja Quick Signs for the 2026-27 Season

Another EuroProBasket guard has signed in Spain for the 2026-27 season. Daeja Quick earned the look in January. The offer came in July, and the six months in between say more about women’s basketball in Spain than any highlight reel does.

From the D2 Record Books to Mexico

Quick is a 5’5″ American combo guard who has produced at every stop. At the University of the District of Columbia she was named 2018 East Coast Conference Rookie of the Year, starting 26 of 28 games and averaging 16 points.

At Slippery Rock University she set a 2022 national record for most minutes played, earned PSAC West Defensive Athlete of the Week, and finished 12th in school history in both minutes and assists. That is a guard who does not come off the floor.

Her first season overseas came with Vaqueras in Mexico’s Liga de Basquetbol del Norte in the fall of 2023. Then she pointed herself at Europe.

January in Valencia

Quick joined the Women’s Professional Program in January 2026, timed to the second signing period, the mid-season window when European teams replace players and fill roster gaps.

She trained daily in Valencia and competed in EuroProBasket games against European talent, coached by FIBA-certified European coaches. Every one of those games was filmed.

She did the work. The offer didn’t come. Not in January, not in February.

What Happens When You Don’t Sign Right Away?

Your film doesn’t expire, and neither does the work behind it. Our staff kept Quick’s EuroProBasket game film and profile moving through the spring and into the summer, sending it to coaches and clubs alongside the other players from her program still waiting on an offer. In July 2026, a club in Spain made the offer, and she signed ahead of the 2026-27 season.

We take no commissions and we place nobody. Our staff shares the film and puts names in front of teams; the contract is the player’s to earn. Since 2015, 400+ players have signed and committed in 25+ different countries out of this environment. The full list is on our players signed page.

Congratulations, Daeja. Spain is getting a competitor.

The September pre-season is the busiest signing window in women’s European basketball, with January behind it. Details are on the Women’s Professional Program page.
