The San Antonio Spurs probably didn’t know they were getting a future Hall of Famer when they selected Manu Ginobili with the 57th overall pick in the 1999 NBA Draft.
But thanks to a ton of hard work, buying in to San Antonio’s unselfish culture, making sacrifices for the team, and transforming himself into one of the most dynamic players in the league, Manu built a reputation that will never be forgotten.
The Spurs are making sure that Ginobili’s contributions to the franchise will be remembered forever as they plan to hang his jersey in the rafters of the AT&T Center on Thursday night.
