Argentina, and especially Ginobili saw their quest for another medal come to an end as they were eliminated by Team USA as Argentina reached the Quarter-Finals. USA defeated Argentina 105-78.
After the game, Ginobili touched on his experience with his Argentina National Team and what he feels now at the age of 39 playing the game he loves, for his country. “This is my 20th year since my first game with the national team,” Ginobili said. “I’m very proud. And at the same time, I’m happy – sad and happy because having the opportunity to play this game at 39, it’s not something that happens often.
