On the afternoon of this Saturday (24), the Flabasquete suffered an unexpected casualty. Marko Filipovity is leaving Mais Querido. Now, the Hungarian will play in his home country, where he has already signed with another team. The end of the relationship with Rubro Negro was a mutual agreement between the parties. HEADACHE FOR GUSTAVO DE CONTI

The Hungarian's departure could result in headache for coach Gustavinho. Even though the winger is not a starter for the team, the coach will not be able to count on a replacement until the end of Novo Basquete Brasil. However, in the Champions League Americas, Rubro Negro will be able to sign up another athlete in Marko's place.

MARKO'S NUMBERS WITH THE SACRED MANTLE

Marko Filipovity arrived at Mais Querido in September 2023. For the NBB, the Hungarian had a good performance, but did not captivate the fans. In the current season, he is averaging 11 points per game and almost five rebounds. His best performance came against Brasília, in November 2023, when he scored 26 points.


In this way, without being able to please the fans, the player says goodbye to Rubro Negro, who will continue in search of another title national and continental. The Pride of the Nation returns to the courts on February 29th, at Maracanãzinho, against Mogi, for the NBB.

Remembering that the Most Wanted leads the national competition with 22 wins and just 4 defeats. In the current season, Rubro Negro has already lifted the Super 8 Cup, but seeks to make the Nation happy and win more trophies.

For everything he experienced on the court, Olivinha is one of Flamengo's greatest idols. In FlaBasquete, he appears as the big figure, even represented by an organized fan flag. The God of Race is the only player in the club's history to win both World Cups won by the team in the sport. His importance is so valued that he will become the only athlete outside football to receive an important honor.

Like great names in football, Olivinha will receive a bust in his honor, and it will be displayed at the Flamengo Museum , in Gávea, according to the newspaper O Globo. It is the first time that a basketball player has received this type of honor at the club, which is very common with football players.


At the main entrance to Gávea, there are busts of Raul, Leandro, Marinho, Moer, Júnior, Andrade, Nunes, Adílio and Lico. Furthermore, Zico has some statues, such as one at the entrance to the Ninho do Urubu football complex. The tributes are all to the stars of the 80s who marked their time at Rubro-Negro. Now, Olivinha enters that same shelf upon receiving the bust, perpetuating herself as an eternal FlaBasquete idol.


The object has already been ordered and should be close to the idols of 1981. The tribute is prepared by the sculptor Eduardo Santos, which is already producing the item at the request of Flamengo.

Olivinha retired at the end of last season for FlaBasquete


The FlaBasquete idol retired at the end of last season. Olivinha announced that she would stop playing after the end of the NBB, which mobilized the team to try to reach the decision and win the cup, honoring the star's legacy.

However, despite reaching the final, the The team was unable to overcome Franca, finishing runner-up and Olivinha had to say a painful but emotional goodbye.

After retirement, Olivinha was given a program on Fla TV. The ‘Lance Livre’ mentions basketball, but it is not just about that topic, but rather a review of the former player with a red-and-black guest. In the premiere, for example, the character chosen was the singer Naldo Benny.
