"Gigi":

Gigi Datome is a household name in Italian basketball and his journey is a phenomenal one. Coming from a small island (Sardinia) in Italy to playing in the NBA, winning the Euroleague (2017) and being the captain of the national team of Italy.
After winning countless domestic leagues and cups in Italy & Turkey he finally decided to hang up his shoes and move into a new role with the National Team behind the scenes.

Today, we talked about his journey as a player and the challenges he went through before going to the NBA as well as during his NBA career, his exciting times in Boston with the Celtics as well as his glorious years with Fenerbahce. We touched on how he dealt with going through slumps, his routines as well as his interests off the court.

This episode is another instant classic especially for the players approaching retirement and the ones that just retired and are looking for directions.
