Ko\u0161arkarski svet \u017ealuje. V 63. letu starosti je po boju z rakom debelega \u010drevesa in danke umrl Jose “Piculin” Ortiz, ena najve\u010djih ikon portori\u0161ke ko\u0161arke, nekdanji \u010dlan Utah Jazz in reprezentant, ki je s Portorikom leta 2004 sodeloval pri zgodovinski zmagi nad Zdru\u017eenimi dr\u017eavami Amerike na olimpijskih igrah v Atenah.<\/p>\n

Jose Ortiz Ortiz je v bogati karieri pustil mo\u010dan pe\u010dat tako v portori\u0161ki kot evropski in svetovni ko\u0161arki. Leta 1987 ga je na naboru lige NBA kot 15. izbral Utah Jazz, za katerega je nato tudi zaigral. V Evropi je nosil drese \u0161tevilnih uglednih klubov, med drugim Real Madrida, Barcelone, Unicaje, CAI Zaragoze, Andorre in gr\u0161kega Arisa, v domovini pa je bil dolga leta eden najve\u010djih obrazov portori\u0161ke ko\u0161arke.<\/p>\n

S portori\u0161ko reprezentanco je nastopil na \u0161tirih olimpijskih igrah, leta 1988 v Seulu, 1992 v Barceloni, 1996 v Atlanti in 2004 v Atenah. Prav tam je bil del generacije, ki je poskrbela za eno najve\u010djih senzacij v olimpijski ko\u0161arki, ko je Portoriko z 92:73 – Ortiz je dosegel 8 to\u010dk in zbral 6 skokov – premagal zvezdni\u0161ko reprezentanco ZDA. Zaradi izjemnega vpliva na ko\u0161arko je bil leta 2019 sprejet tudi v Fibino hi\u0161o slavnih.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ko\u0161arkarski svet \u017ealuje.
