Ricardo Dalmau
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ricardo Dalmau (1977 - ) is the youngest of three children of the legendary basketball player Raymond Dalmau. He began his professional basketball career in 1995 with the Polluelos de Aibonito, under the coaching of his father. That year he earned the Puerto Rican League's Rookie of the Year Award. The next year, he joined his eldest brother Richie in the Piratas de Quebradillas, the basketball team where his father spent his entire career.
Along side his brother Richie Dalmau, he led Quebradillas to two Puerto Rican League Finals in 1999 and 2000, losing both of them to the Cangrejeros de Santurce. He participated with the Puerto Rican National Team in 2002.
By the end of 2003, Quebradillas had many financial problems and they lost the rights to all their players. Ricardo and his brother Richie moved to the Indios de Mayaguez for the 2004 season. However, both of them reunited with their father Raymond when they signed contracts with the Cangrejeros de Santurce for the 2005 season. Raymond was the head coach of the team.
