The man from Bahia shared a video and talked about his performance in training after several years of his retirement.
Manu Ginobili, a legend of the Argentine National Team and an NBA legendshowed his followers that his hand was still warm and his gaze calibrated, even years after his retirement as a professional. The man from Bahia, now 46 years old, showed a little in his last training session, where he returned to contact the ball, something we are not very used to. Generally, his activities are more related to cycling or tennis, but this time he stepped on the hardwood again and ended up surprising some after a series of scores.
“This is the first time in five years that I’ve done a 100-shot round. I got a better conversion rate than I expected, but my shoulder hurt afterwards.”Manu wrote on his social networks. As a taunt, he added an emoji of an old man, implying that he was too old for these issues. But if we are guided by the video, his effectiveness is above the average of some players, even if some remain at the professional level today. It’s true that among his main skills is not the three-point shot, but this is no less important to the four-time champion at the Spurs when it comes to rediscovering the hoop.
Currently, Manu works as a special advisor for basketball operations at the Spurs, a team that this season is far from the fight for first place, but has key players to consume. Obviously the most important is Victor Wembanyama; number one in the draft, taking home the rookie of the year award in the NBA season. In that context, he was recently asked how long he thinks it will be before the Spurs compete for championships again. The Bahian replied “It’s hard to count. But we now hope and believe in Víctor (Wembanyama) and in the next draft, we will have two top 10 players. In two or three years, we will be able to compete. I don’t know if I’m the favorite, but for sure me that I will be in the playoffs and will be great.”
