Manu Ginobili não é mais jogador de basquete profissional. O impacto e influência do maior nome da história da modalidade na Argentina e um dos maiores ídolos da história do San Antonio Spurs, porém, vai se perpetuar por várias gerações. Uma prova disso foi testemunhada nesta segunda-feira, com a reação de reverência de esportistas e grandes atletas da NBA à notícia da aposentadoria do veterano.
Craques como LeBron James, Kobe Bryant e Dwyane Wade manifestaram-se nas redes sociais assim que a informação foi divulgada para exaltar a carreira do atleta argentino. Confira algumas dessas reações:

I competed against you for 9 years. I sat through countless pregame meetings discussing how not to let you go to your left hand because when you do, you’re impossible to stop! Then, I became your teammate and got to witness first hand how you bring way more value to a team than pic.twitter.com/JJYbvXNToE

Hell of a career @manuginobili . One of the best to ever do it. Pick and roll genius. Euro-step king. Hated trying to force you right in the pnr knowing you would still snake back to the left hand. I’ve borrowed a lot of your moves and set-ups. The game will miss you !
