Throwback 2004 Manu Ginobili #5 Team Argentina Basketball Jersey

Manu Ginobili wore #5 for Argentina at the 2004 Athens Olympics — the tournament where Argentina won Olympic gold by defeating the United States 89-81 in the semi-final and Italy 84-69 in the final, producing one of the most celebrated upsets in international basketball history. The US squad included LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade and Allen Iverson; Argentina's squad had Ginobili, Pepe Sánchez, Andrés Nocioni and Luis Scola — a group whose collective cohesion overwhelmed individual American talent.

Ginobili scored 29 points in the semi-final against the USA and was named tournament MVP. The gold medal was Argentina's first in any Olympic team sport and remains the defining achievement in South American basketball history. His eurostep, his confidence and his refusal to be intimidated by the Americans made him the symbol of a generational upset. This 2004 Argentina #5 throwback is from the greatest night in Argentine basketball.
