Pierluigi Marzorati:
"I am very happy to be included in the list of 50 contributors to European club basketball. It is very important for me and I think it is a good chance to meet a few friends I played with or against. It is going to be a good thing for everybody. I played in Pallacanestro Cantu for 23 seasons and had a lot of teammates. I was lucky to have talented ones and also good coaches throughout my career."
