The #FlaBasquete started the season on the right foot, demonstrating its full potential from the first game. In their debut in the State Championship, Pride of the Nation not only won, but also impressed by defeating CCL Leopoldina with an impressive margin of 137 to 50 points. Flamengo's victory was a demonstration of strength and skill on the part of the team. From the start of the game, it was clear that the team was determined to dominate the match and show its superiority. The players demonstrated great interaction on the court, with precise passes and well-executed plays.

In addition, Flamengo's defense also stood out by limiting CCL Leopoldina to just 50 points. This reflects the team's dedication not only on offense, but also when it comes to protecting the rim itself. The defensive pressure was relentless, making it very difficult for the opponent to find spaces to score. The individual performance of Flamengo players is also worth highlighting. Several athletes contributed significantly to the victory, with impressive scores and highlight plays. The coach and the technical committee must be satisfied with what they saw on the court.

Flamengo fans, as always, showed up in force to support the team. The Gym was full of passionate fans who spared no effort to encourage the players. This unconditional support is one of the hallmarks of the Rubro-Negra Nation and certainly played an important role in the team's victory. This convincing victory in the debut bodes well for the #FlaBasquete season. It shows that the team is in good shape and ready to compete at a high level. However, it is important to remember that there is still a long way to go, with many challenges ahead.


The next games will be equally important, and Flamengo will need to maintain the same determination and focus that they displayed today. There can be no complacency as the competition will be fierce and opponents will certainly try to recover. Now, #FlaBasquete has a solid foundation to build its season. This landmark victory is a boost of confidence for the players and the coaching staff. They know they are capable of great things, and this can drive them to seek more victories and titles.


The fans, of course, will continue to support the team unconditionally. Flamengo is more than a club; It is a passion that unites millions of people across Brazil and the world. At each game, the Rubro-Negra Nation will be there, doing its part to drive #FlaBasquete towards success. Therefore, after this triumphant debut, all that remains is to say: LETS GO, FLAMENGO! The journey has just begun, and the expectation is that it will be a season full of emotions and achievements for the Pride of the Nation. Opponents get ready, because #FlaBasquete is determined to shine.

This past Tuesday (17), Felipe Motta announced his departure from Flamengo through his social networks, after one season. Now, the athlete will defend Rubro-Negro's rival, Botafogo in NBB 2024/25.

Felipe was revealed as an athlete with great potential. The young man played for the Brazilian National Team's youth teams, went through the NBA Global Academy, the North American league's development program, and played for Fortaleza before arriving at Rubro-Negro last season. He was champion of the Super 8 Cup and was part of the runner-up in the NBB.


However, Felipe only had a few minutes on the court per game and very discreet numbers. The winger played 5 minutes on average per game and had the following statistics: 1.3 points, 0.6 rebounds and 0.4 assists. The young man had more opportunities in LNb 2024 and did well in the fourth place campaign, but both parties reached an agreement and ended the relationship.

FELIPE MOTTA SAYS GOODBYE TO FLAMENGO

On his social networks, Felipe Motta thanked Mais Querido and sent a message to the Nation: “Thank you Flamengo. It was an honor to be part of and play for the red and black nation.”


It is expected that Felipe will have more minutes at Botafogo and can establish himself among the elite of Brazilian basketball. The new NBB 2024/25 season will start in the second week of October, and Mais Querido will face Vasco in the first round.

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.
