The first Spaniards in the history of the VTB League were defenders Carlos Cabezas and Raul Lopez. After the triumphant EuroBasket 2009 for Spain, both basketball players signed a contract with Khimki and played 8 matches for the Moscow Region club in the VTB United League in the 2009/10 season. Cabezas then returned to the Spanish championship, while Lopez stayed in Russia and helped Khimki win the VTB League in 2011.
The only Spaniard who played in the VTB League for two different clubs was Victor Claver. In the 2014/15 season, the striker defended the colors of Khimki, and in the 2015/16 season he represented Krasnodar Lokomotiv Kuban.
The leader in the number of seasons (3) and games played (96) among Spanish basketball players was Joaquin Colom, who played for UNICS from 2015 to 2018. As part of the Kazan team, the defender won silver medals in the championship (2016), the title of the Best Sixth Player (2016), and also made it to the All-Star Game of the VTB United League (2018).
