Olimpia Milano shared a lengthy interview with Keith Langford, the American guard who was recently honored with the induction into the Italian club’s Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n
Below is the introduction, here is the full transcript of the interview<\/a>.<\/p>\n He was one of the greatest Americans of the last 15 years of European basketball, he won national titles in Italy, Russia, Israel, Greece, he won European cups, best scorer championships twice in the EuroLeague, individual awards, making sure he was always respected for the talent, the total commitment. Keith Langford is a member of the Olimpia Hall of Fame for his impact in one of the best seasons in the club\u2019s recent history, the year in which the drought of national titles was ended after 18 years. It was a special year for other reasons, too, the EuroLeague playoffs, the seven consecutive wins in the Top 16, the feeling that Olimpia was an almost unstoppable team, 21 wins in a row in the Italian league among other things. Here is Keith Langford\u2019s confession, his satisfactions, some regrets, not many, his pride for what he has done while also fighting against stereotypes, against a weird career in which, after becoming a star at collegiate level, he had to restart from scratch and win everyone back in Europe.<\/p>\n I'm Keith Langford-This is My Story — Olimpia Milano (@OlimpiaMI1936) February 10, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
