Hustle Actor Juancho Hernangomez Bio | Wiki

26-years-old Juancho Hernangomez (born on September 28, 1995) is a Spanish basketballer who lives in America and plays for Utah Jazz. He represented his country (Spain) in the 2019 World Cup and played a significant role in bringing the gold medal. Juan has been playing basketball professionally since 2012, and in 2016, his name was among the candidates who were on the international early-entry list of the NBA draft.

In 2022, this athlete’s name shined not because of his playing skills but because of his acting in a film named “Hustle,” which aired on Netflix on June 8. In this movie, Adam Sandler played the role of a scout, Stanley Sugerman, who discovers a ball player named Bo Cruz (played by Juancho Hernangomez) in the streets of Spain and trains him to turn him into a phenomenal player.

Early Life

On September 28, 1995, Juan Alberto “Juancho” Hernangómez Geuer (age 26 years) took birth in Madrid, Spain, to a family of basketball players. His mother, Margarita Geuer, and father, Guillermo Hernangomez Heredero, are former basketballers who played in their national teams. Not only Juan but his brother Willy Hernangómez and sister Andrea Hernangomez are also professional players who play for New Orleans Pelicans and Estudiantes, respectively.

Alberto grew up watching his parents playing basketball and following the footsteps of folks; he also chose to play this sport. Till 2007 he played for his school team, but after that, he joined CB Las Rozas and played for this club for a couple of years. Later he got chosen to be a part of Real Madrid, where he played before moving to a famous basketball club named Club Baloncesto Majadahonda.

Basketball & Acting Career

In 2022, we all know who Hernangómez is, but there is a lot of hard work and guidance behind his success. His mom and dad played a significant role. They taught him and guided him throughout his journey. Till 2012, Hernangómez played like a junior player, but at 17, he got picked by CB Estudiantes, and it was his first contract.

The team managers decided to make him play in their second team, but later, he was given a chance to play in the leading team. From 2015 to 2016, he played supremely well and was awarded by ACB as Best Young Player. He played in the under-18 and under-20 European Championship.

In 2016, Juancho’s career took a massive leap when his name appeared on the NBA’s list of early entry candidates. He got picked by Denver Nuggets, and since then, he has been on different teams like Minnesota Timberwolves, Boston Celtics, and San Antonio Spurs. Currently, the 6 feet 9 inches tall Hernangomez plays for Utah Jazz.

In 2021, LeBron James and Adam Sandler decided to produce a film named “Hustle,” and Juancho was offered to play the role of Bo Cruz. At first, the athlete was nervous about whether he would be able to act or not, but LeBron backed him, and finally, Juancho got ready to work in the film. On June 8, “Hustle” aired on Netflix, including a few theatres, and was a blockbuster. People loved Adam Sandler’s intense acting and Alberto’s playing skills.

Personal Life

Hernangomez is a highly polite guy in real life. Some people even call him a real gentleman. He is super disciplined and can mostly be found practicing in his private basketball course. Upon visiting Juancho’s Instagram account, you will find that since 2019 he has shared only 5 to 6 posts.
