Sergio Ramos went to Dallas this Friday to watch the fourth game of the NBA Finals and meet Luka Doncic, another player with a brilliant past at Real Madrid.

The Spanish defender from Sevilla and the Slovenian star from the Mavericks chatted before the match and gave each other several gifts: a Dallas shirt for Ramos and two shirts (one from Madrid and one from the Spanish national team) for Doncic.

Among his appearance, Sergio Ramos had a striking number 15 tattooed on his head, the same Champions League number that Real Madrid has, the team for which both Ramos and Donic played in Basketball.

“Luka had a special guest and received some clothes before the fourth game,” he wrote on X the official account of the Mavericks accompanying the images of the Balkan with bouquets.

In addition to his meeting with Doncic, Ramos later posed with a basketball legend and a Mavericks legend like Dirk Nowitzki, also present in Dallas for this fourth game of the Finals.

Luka Doncic talks about meeting Sergio Ramos:

The Slovenian Luka Doncic, leader of the Mavericks, assured this Friday that it was “an honor” for him to have the Spaniard Sergio Ramos on the court in Dallas in the 122-84 victory achieved against the Boston Celtics in the fourth game of the NBA Finals and defined the defender as “a legend of Real Madrid”.

“It has been an honor to have Sergio here, a legend of Real Madrid, so it has been a very great honor,” Doncic said in Spanish at the post-game press conference at the American Airlines Center.

Ramos was sitting at the foot of the court and met with Doncic in the run-up to the match. They chatted and exchanged gifts: a Dallas shirt for Ramos and two shirts (one from Madrid and one from the Spanish national team) for Doncic.

“The people were great today, it means a lot that they still believe in us,” said the Slovenian whose team is down 1-3 in the NBA Finals against the Celtics.

“I had a lot of fun, the whole team was having fun. That is the key for us,” she considered.
