Caicedo made his debut under Sarunas Jasikevicius at the age of 17, in October 2021, on the Basketball Manresa court and since then he has played a total of 21 games in the national championship, including his new team’s visit to the Palau against who signed three points.

We are a team that we try to play collectively and we need players who give us minutes of help and rotation”, said the coach of Coviran Granada, Pablo Pin, about his new signing.
