Špela Brecelj brings rebounding, international polish, and frontcourt versatility to Virginia Tech
Brecelj looks like a low-usage, high-rebound fit for Virginia Tech: in the 2024-25 season at Kortrijk she averaged 8.7 points and 6.8 rebounds in about 20.8 minutes per game, and her 2025 FIBA U20 EuroBasket run showed steady production on the glass (5.3 rebounds per game) against strong international competition.[4][6][8][12] Her differentiators are size, experience, and versatility—VT lists her as a guard/forward, and she has a long youth-national-team résumé with six European Championships, one World Cup, and multiple gold medals, which suggests a mature, competition-tested player who can help with physicality and lineup flexibility.[11][12]
