Career
After two years in the Argentine championship , Delfino moved to Italy , where he played for a total of 4 years. His greatest success during this time was reaching the EuroLeague final in 2004 with Skipper Bologna .
He then moved to the Detroit Pistons , who had already selected him in the 2003 draft, in the NBA.

After a season in which the final of the Eurocup was reached, Delfino returned to the NBA and signed with the Milwaukee Bucks . Delfino played for the Bucks for three years and moved to the Houston Rockets after his contract within the league expired .

After the season ended, the Rockets prematurely terminated their contract with Delfino. He then returned to the Milwaukee Bucks, but did not complete a single game in the 2013-14 season. In the summer of 2014, Delfino and his teammate Miroslav Raduljica came to the Los Angeles Clippers in a player swap , but both players were released from their contracts before the start of the season.
