Former NBA player Ben Bentil was given a special welcome by Italian basketball franchise Olimpia Milano following his return to the Mediolanum Forum arena with Red Star Basketball club.
The 27-year-old was honoured with a framed jersey alongside Nemanja Nedovic for their contributions to the team.
The Ghanaian won the Italian league with Olimpia Milano in 2022 and joined his current team shortly afterwards.
Bentil was the 51st overall pick in the 2016 NBA draft, becoming the first Ghanaian drafted into the major basketball league in the US.
