Already knew he would. It might be his last appearance on the BB court.
Just confirmed by the Argentinian Basketball Association.
"Happy to announce that Manu Ginobili has told coach Sergio Hernandez that he will be available for the Olympics games in Rio".

Fitting that will probably be his last compe ion. I know in America it's not discussed much anymore but 2004 was one of the greatest achievements in sports history. You probably won't see it again in your lifetime...
Confirming retirement.
Hopefully he goes 2005 on the NBA in the playoffs. Go out shooting.
Has PArker won Olympic Gold and WC le?
Has he?
Has he?
France's first ever Euro le. Not as great as Manu but still an accomplishment for Parker and France.
I hope they do well. If Kawhi doesn't make the Olympic roster somehow, I'll be rooting for them to win it all.
Yes. It is a sad day for Spurs fans. But, enjoy retirement, Manu!
Manu rulesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!
always the best is Manu
Idk.. they couldn't win the American tournament. They're still running on Scola and Nocioni. A couple of guys like Campazzo are good but I'd be surprised if they make it to the last 8 (though you never now with those guys).
Unless we could time travel to 2004 and get the guys who went to Athens, there's 0 chance we win the gold medal. Semifinals would be awesome imo.
I guess Argentina needs a towelwaver as much as any other team
At least this makes it official that Manu will hang the jockstrap after this season no matter what
Probably wont be a Spur by this time
There is no way Manu was going to miss the Olympics. I guess I'll have to catch Team Argentina's last games mostly through streams and torrents since our ty Olympic coverage in the US never shows other countries and spends most of its time doing America is the greatest circle jerk human interest stories. But no way I'm going to miss the last games of such an unbelievable Argentine team, that has to be the greatest national team I have ever seen.

Sad news indeed
Why do you say that? Manu is only playing for a couple million dollars now. He can do what the he wants and the Spurs aren't going to say anything. It was one thing when Manu was making $14 million a year, but they can't piss Manu off when he's the one doing the team the favor.
Good for him. Favorite spur ever!!! Now don't come back unless its means Bonner is gone and you took his place as the 17th man.
