Ádám Hanga (Hungarian: Hanga Ádám, born April 12, 1989 in Budapest, Hungary) is a Hungarian professional basketball player who currently plays for Bàsquet Manresa in the Liga ACB. His NBA rights were acquired by the San Antonio Spurs in the 2011 NBA Draft, as the 59th pick of the draft.[1]
Hanga began his career by Albacomp in 2006, at the age of 17, and stayed with the Székesfehérvár-based club until 2011. In June 2009 he was invited to the Adidas Eurocamp, an event that is held annually in Treviso for top-flight players aged between 18 and 21. After three days of training and scrimmages, he was ranked the sixth best non-U.S. player in his age group.[2] 2010 turned out to be his breakout season, as he dominated the Hungarian league. In May 2011 he moved to the Spanish championship, signing for Bàsquet Manresa.[3][4]
