Birthplace, not citizenship. These lists group players by the country they were born in, which is what the public roster data records. A player born in one country may hold another nationality, may have grown up elsewhere, and may represent a different country internationally.
Four NBA players on 2026-27 rosters were born in Spain. This is a birthplace list — it reflects where each player was born, not citizenship or nationality. The 4 players spread across 3 teams, with Dallas carrying 2 of them.
The group skews tall and young. Aday Mara, born in Zaragoza, stands at 7'3" and is the tallest of the four. Sergio de Larrea, born in Valladolid, is the youngest at 20, while Santi Aldama, born in Las Palmas De Gas, is the oldest at 25.
