The American took advantage of the regular season interruption of the NBA for him All stars game and came to visit our country. And he didn’t want to miss the opportunity to see the Murciano live, one of the best tennis players on the planet.
the gutter of You love me -which is represented by IMG, the same company that has had Alcaraz in its portfolio since the Murciano was 12 years old- has revolutionized the Lawn tennis in Buenos Aires.
The Texan had a relaxing time with the Spaniard, who demonstrated his talent with basketball and also scored more times than the NBA star. “I’m on hiatus,” the six-time All Star justified himself.
Butler had no problem letting Carlitos take center stage and acted as photographer so that people in his accompanying group could also snap a photo with the world number two racketeer.
He also came across the halls of the BALTC Gabriel Sabatini, the best Argentine tennis player in history, with whom he was seen chatting very relaxed. He took a typical gift from our country: a mate. And, of course, he enjoyed Alcaraz’s big win like a fan.
“I knew it would come, because the same club represents us,” admitted the Spaniard after the match. “Meeting this kind of star is a bit new for me, I don’t see myself at that level. I never expect a star like him to come and watch my match, even if it’s always nice.”
And he added: “I like basketball. When I can I see it and I also see it. And the truth is that I’m not doing very badly”.
Butler surprised Argentines when he shared a story on Instagram a few days ago featuring the Casa Rosada. Thanks to Twitter and Instagram users, it was possible to see that he had also filmed around the Obelisk, where he was surrounded by about seven people who would have been part of the group that would have accompanied him to Argentina.
As it became known, the NBA, a fan of Lionel Messi and soccer, has ruled out an invitation to the All-Star Game to be held this weekend at Vivint Smart Home Arena from Salt Lake City, Utah, precisely because I had already organized this trip to Buenos Aires.
