Olivinha completes 500 games in the NBB

The match will have a special flavor for the #FlaBasquete captain. A six-time NBB champion, the "God of Race" will complete 500 games in the competition. Olivinha has played in all 15 editions of the tournament.

"It's an honor to reach this milestone. I'm the first player in NBB history to reach 500 games. It means I'm getting old (laughs), I've played a lot," said the number 16. "It's a milestone I'm super happy to reach, and I hope I can play more and more games, that I can increase this number. The most important thing of all is that I can help Flamengo come away with more and more victories," added the star, who is in his 11th consecutive season with the Rubro-Negro.

The power forward returns to the court after injuring his quadriceps tendon, suffered on October 25, in a match against Fortaleza, at Maracanãzinho. Olivinha returned to ball training last Monday (14) and is among the 12 players selected for the match against Caxias do Sul.
