SAN ANTONIO – It is no secret San Antonio Spurs star guard Manu Ginobili is one of the most decorated players ever to wear a silver and black uniform and Gatorade Argentina is hoping to highlight his success by featuring him in a new commercial.
The commercial, titled “Un Poco Mas" -- in translation, “A Little More” -- follows Ginobili working out alone at the Spurs practice facility.
