Luis Scola

Luis Scola is the kind of player I deeply respect. At 206 cm out of Buenos Aires, he was never the flashiest big man, but he was one of the smartest—NBA All-Rookie First Team with Houston, three-time All-EuroLeague, and a true cornerstone for Argentina's national team. What I admire most is his longevity and his brain on the floor; he scored with craft rather than spectacle. The fact that he moved into a CEO role with Varese after retiring tells me his intelligence was never confined to the court. Named an Illustrious Citizen of Buenos Aires, he's a model of the thinking athlete.
