}} Emanuel David "Manu" Ginóbili ((:emaˈnwel xiˈnoβili), (:ʝiˈnoβili); born 28 July 1977) is an Argentine professional basketball player who currently plays for the San Antonio Spurs of the National Basketball Association (NBA). Coming from a family of professional basketball players, he is a member of the Argentine men's national basketball team and the San Antonio Spurs in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Hailed as one of the finest international players to grace the NBA, he plays a high-tempo and intense game. He is one of only two players, along with Bill Bradley, to have won a Euroleague title, an NBA championship, and an Olympic gold medal. Ginóbili spent the early part of his basketball career in Argentina and Italy, where he won several individual and team honors. His stint with Italian side Kinder Bologna was particularly productive; he won two Italian League MVP awards, the Euroleague Finals MVP and the 2001 Euroleague and Triple Crown championships. Selected as the 57th overall pick in the 1999 NBA draft, the shooting guard is considered one of the biggest draft steals of all time. Ginóbili joined the Spurs in 2002, and soon became a key player for the team. He has earned four NBA championships and was named an All-Star in 2005 and 2011. In the 2007–08 season, he was named the NBA Sixth Man of the Year. Ginóbili has also enjoyed success with the Argentina national team. He made his debut in 1998, and helped win the gold medal during the 2004 Olympics Basketball Tournament. ==Family and personal life== Ginóbili comes from a family of basketball players. His oldest brother, Leandro, retired in 2003 after seven years in the Argentine basketball league, while brother Sebastián has played in both the local league and the Spanish Liga Española de Baloncesto. Their father Jorge was a coach at a club in Bahía Blanca, where Ginóbili learned to play the game.〔Ludden, Johnny, ("Mover and shaker: Motor always has been running for Spurs' Ginobili" ), mysanantonio.com, 11 June 2005. Retrieved 18 August 2007.〕 Given the proliferation of basketball clubs in Bahía Blanca and his idolization of Michael Jordan, Ginóbili's love for basketball grew rapidly. Ginóbili has dual citizenship with Argentina and Italy,〔Hollinger, John, ("The 30 best international players in the NBA" ), sports.espn.com, 27 April 2007. Retrieved 17 June 2007.〕 thanks to his Marchesan descent. As a result of his travels, he can speak Spanish, Italian and English fluently.〔 In his free time, Ginóbili enjoys listening to Latin music, watching movies and relaxing with his friends.〔 In 2004, he married Marianela Oroño.〔(Manu Ginobili, Spurs Guard ), ''Sports Illustrated'', 30 May 2005.
