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.

On Monday morning (15), forward Gabriel Jaú announced his departure from Flamengo after two remarkable seasons. At 25 years old, Jaú was one of the main highlights of FlaBasquete, directly contributing to the victory of the Copa Super 8 in the 2023/24 season, in which he was elected the MVP (Most Valuable Player) of the competition.

With his departure from Flamengo , Gabriel Jaú embarks on a new challenge: a career in European basketball. The player signed with Kolossos, a team from Greece, marking the beginning of his career on the European continent. Gabriel Jaú stood out at Flamengo not only for his skill on the court, but also for his leadership and team spirit.

A BITTER EXIT


During his time at the club, he was a key player in several victories and decisive moments, demonstrating consistency and talent. The athlete, who wore the number 9 shirt, became a beloved figure among fans and respected by opponents. Winning the Super 8 Cup in 2023/24 was a special moment for Jaú and Flamengo.


The title came as a result of hard work and a committed squad, in which Gabriel Jaú shined brightly . His performance during the tournament, culminating in the MVP award, highlighted his potential and justified the interest of European clubs. Kolossos, the team that will be Jaú's new home, has a tradition in Greek basketball and sees the Brazilian pivot as a valuable addition to their team. The expectation is that he can bring the same intensity and quality of play that he demonstrated at Flamengo, helping Kolossos reach new heights.
