Great Footballers who also love Basketball


 No doubt, basketball is a nice Sport like Football though restricted to some area but many don"t see it  that way. Americans take basketball very serious than any other Country that is why the NBA is always a divine competition. Basketball is a game i believe hard work is needed and your talent cannot overpower. Some Footballers love basketball as much as the Football they play and despite their Professionalism. Here is the list of some Footballers who also love dunking the Basket.
 1. THIERRY HENRY
          The Arsenal and Barcelona legend is my first pick. A good friend of Tony Parker and a wonderful fan of Spurs- i mean San Antonio Spurs in US. Arsenal fans may not like it because its spursy but the fact still remains that Henry loves Basketball. Henry and Tony Parker are both French and this might the reason for the closeness and love of the game because Tony Parker was once San Antonio Spurs best player.
2.  PAUL POGBA
          No doubt, Paul Pogba is also a great lover of the game in the subject matter. He also have friends in the NBA like Henry. Some of his friends who are professional basketball players  are  Joel Embiidi and James Harden. Some years back, Pogba posted a picture of himself putting on Houston Rockets Jersey to show his great support for the American basketball club.
3. THIBAUT COURTIOUS
          Thibaut has always been a lover of the game since he was a kid. While growing up as a kid, he use to play as a hoop. His serious love for the game made him to travel down to America to watch an NBA game when his team- Chelsea face Manchester united in the premier league in 2017 although he was injured and not fit to face Manchester united. 
4.  MAMADOU SAKHO
           The former Liverpool defender currently playing for Crystal Palace love basketball too. Sakho is a fan of Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA.
5. ANTOINE GRIZEMANN
            The French player love basketball so much that he adores Derrick Rose so much. After winning the world cup in 2018, he interrupted Paul Pogba in front of a camera and shouted 'I love Derrick Rose'. He supports Derrick Rose throughout his stay at Bulls, New York Knicks and Cleveland Cavaliers.
