San Antonio Spurs v Memphis Grizzlies - Game Four

Injury has left Manu Ginobili sidelined and unable to play for Argentina in the FIBA World Cup this year, but he’s still a legend in the country.  They decided to honor Ginobili with a statue of his likeness in  Buenos Aires.

Manu happily tweeted a photo of the statue with the caption: “Vieja: no me recibí de médico, pero me hicieron una estatua en Buenos Aires!”

Translated it means: “Mom: I didn’t become a doctor, but they made me a statue in Buenos Aires!”
