Pedro Martinez has been named the 2025-26 Alexander Gomelskiy Coach of the Year after leading Valencia Basket to a 25-13 record and a second-place finish in the EuroLeague regular season. The award is decided by votes from the league’s fellow head coaches.

It is a historic achievement for Martinez, who becomes the first Valencia coach to win the award and the fourth Spanish-born coach to do so, following Xavi Pascual, Pablo Laso and Chus Mateo. Valencia also led the league in scoring during the regular season at 90.9 points per game and secured home-court advantage in the playoffs.

Behind Martinez in the voting were Tomas Masiulis of Zalgiris Kaunas, Georgios Bartzokas of Olympiacos, and reigning winner Sarunas Jasikevicius of Fenerbahce.
