Bernardo Rodríguez Arias, nicknamed Berni Rodríguez (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈbeɾni roˈðɾiɣeθ]; born 7 June 1980) is a Spanish retired professional basketball player. He is 1.97 m (6 ft 5 ¾ in) tall.
Professional career
[edit]Rodríguez began his men's club career with Unicaja Macias of the Liga EBA (Spanish 4th division), the farm team of Unicaja Málaga, during the 1998–99 season. He then moved to the senior club of Unicaja Málaga of the top-level Spanish ACB League, for the 1999–00 season.
In June 2012, after 13 seasons with Málaga, Rodríguez left Unicaja Malaga. The club decided to retire his number 5 jersey.[1]
A month and a half later, he signed with the Spanish League club UCAM Murcia, where he decided to play with the number 41, out of respect to his old number 5 at Málaga.[2]
In July 2016, Rodríguez announced his retirement from playing professional basketball.[3]
National team career
[edit]Rodríguez played internationally with the senior Spain national team that won the gold medal at the 2006 FIBA World Championship. With Spain, he also won the silver medal at the 2007 EuroBasket, and the silver medal at the 2008 Summer Olympics.
After retirement
[edit]Five days after announcing his retirement from playing professional club basketball, Rodríguez signed on as the sporting director of the Spanish League club Baloncesto Sevilla, which was the last club that he played at.[4]
