Gianmarco Tamberi parades with the NBA, on the other hand he has never hidden his irrepressible passion for the ball which had already pushed him two years ago to try his hand at the night of the stars. Pure passion, visceral love, this is what it’s all about: the national Gimbo, the champion who has won every possible title with the high jump, every now and then gives in to the fatal attraction of basketball, attracting the spotlights and cameras of Worldwide. It matters little that the Paris 2024 Olympics, the sporting event par excellence, are rapidly approaching. He doesn’t give up a night as an NBA star, for anything in the world. It had already happened in February 2022, when in the Celebrity Game, an event part of the All-Star Game, the jumper from Ancona had achieved a double-double, as they say in basketball jargon, that is, with more than ten points and as many rebounds achieved, conquering the United States and the spectators with a magnificent dunk.
He will try again on the Italian night between today and tomorrow in Indianapolis (1 am tomorrow, in Italy), again in the Celebrity Match of the NBA All Star Game. “I’m a basketball fan, I’ve loved playing it since I was little, it’s a wonderful illness of mine – Tamberi declared to SkySport24 in recent days – This second call-up is an immense honor for me, playing in the Olympus of basketball and treading the The NBA parquet is one of those things that when I started doing athletics I thought I would never be able to experience. Two years ago I was like a child in a playground, I certainly couldn’t give up a new call-up, even if my goal remains to prepare myself as best as possible for the Olympics, so I will continue to train.”
So the high jump star made in Ancona flew to America where tonight together with film and music stars she will give life to the long-awaited show: “It seems incredible, but it really happened – wrote Gimbo on Instagram –. After two years I was called to live again that dream that I had in my drawer as a child. A dream that seemed unachievable, given that I had chosen a completely different path. It will be one of the strongest emotions of my life”. And then he crushes Gimbo.
