“I would have liked to play in basketball today, with so many shots of three and run. The talent and skill of the players is amazing. There are things that are seen and cannot be believed. I would like to play it with 25, 28 years. Today, at 40 – 50, defending these guys is difficult. They go very fast, they fly ”, he considered.

He also praised his compatriot Facundo Campazzo, of the Denver Nuggets, whom he described as “Undisputed” for his “talent and energy.”

In addition, he said that he did not see “crazy” investing in any team, but he assured that it is not “looking to try to enter”.
