He remembered when he got drafted, his memories from the NBA with the Spurs and Tim Duncan and the gold medal with his National Team at Indianapolis’ World Championship. You will heard that time when, while playing in Efes Pilsen, he had to run in the forest at 7am alone in the rain and ran into wild dogs. We also talked about the evolution of the game and the importance of having ELPA. Enjoy !
