“Milan is a great Milan”. The accent is Castilian, but the language is Milanese. “I will always be one of you”, Sergio Rodriguez during his special night in Milan. “It’s not easy to feel at home when you live in a new country, abroad. I felt at home in Milan from the first day and for every day”, he said, expressing himself in Italian with ease. “Thank you also on behalf of my family, this is our home, I want to thank you all.” Next to him was Ana, his wife, and their four children, including the very small Roberta and the very scared “Mini Chacho”. It was an unforgettable evening for his induction into the club’s Hall of Fame. When the images of his games in Milan were broadcasted on the jumbo screen, a veil of emotion crossed his face. A smile when seeing the hige three he made in Game 6 of the 2022 championship series. “Ours has been a special relationship, I had a lot of fun representing Olimpia, here at the Forum. You gave me affection and continue to give it to me. I love you”. Unforgettable Chacho.
