While San Antonio waits on a decision from Manu Ginobili, there’s news about another Ginobili in town. Manu’s big brother, Sebastian Ginobili or ‘Sepo’ for short, will join the San Antonio Spurs for their Summer League play in Utah starting July 3-6th and later that month in Las Vegas.
Sebastian Ginobili retired from basketball at the age of 40. Now 45, Sebastian has just finished his fourth year as the head coach for Bahia Basket in Argentina.
Sepo told Basquet Plus, an Argentinian website, that the Spurs had asked Manu if his brother would join the Spurs for summer league play towards the end of the regular season.
He went on to say that initially he thought he would just be observing the team but was later told he would have an active role on the staff.
