Espiga was one of the founding players of the Joinville team, after the team lost its sponsor and was re-created a couple of years later. He is the oldest player on the squad, but is very loved by the local crowd and gets many minutes off the bench. On the first round of the 2010 playoffs, Espiga started on all 3 games, because starting point guard Manteguinha was injured.
