• Direct: the last hour against coronavirus
  • Solidaridad.Nadal and Gasol team up to get 11 million

The Endesa League, stranded like the rest of international competitions since the coronavirus pandemic was definitively unleashed throughout the continent and with no date for the return, has not wanted to be left behind in these times of difficulty and uncertainty. The highest competition in Spanish basketball has launched a novel initiative with the purpose of raising funds in the fight against Covid-19 .

To do this, he has collected 30 'treasures'. Unique pieces donated by the protagonists of the national basket that have already been put up for auction. The proceeds from #LaMejorAsistencia (that is what the campaign is called) will go to #NuestraMejorVictoria, the initiative that Pau Gasol and Rafa Nadal started with the Red Cross.

From Monday to Saturday 11, on ebay (http://www.acb.com/lamejorasistencia) you can bid on real gems. For example, the shirt with which Sergio Llull played in the final of the last World Cup, the gold medal of the 2017 Albabas female Eurobasket, the ball signed for the first gold in a Eurobasket in 2009 (Víctor Claver), the commemorative shoes of the past World Cup (Xavi Rabaseda) or the 2003 European final jersey (Carlos Jiménez) .... And much more, collector's treasures with the best of purposes.

Also very personal objects such as the shirt signed by the entire Real Madrid squad the day Felipe Reyes broke the record for games in ACB, the ball with which the Raptors won the NBA a year ago (Sergio Scariolo), some shoes by Alex Oklahoma-customized shoes with the colors of Barça and the flag of Spain, the athletes' exclusive quilt in Sidney 2000 (Iñaki de Miguel) or even a fetish poker briefcase from Barça (Víctor Sada).

There will also be no lack of memories of the most recent titles in the Endesa League and the Copa del Rey: balls signed by the cup champions of 2019 (Barça) and 2020 (Real Madrid), complemented by a very special donation from Pablo Laso : the individual champion trophy . Pedro Martínez will provide a ball signed by the entire Valencia Basket champion squad in 2017 and Xavi Pascual from his last league with Barça, 2013-14.

The list, detailed by the ACB, is extensive: Joan Creus will wear the shirt with which he won the League in 1998, Pep Cargol with which he won the European Cup in 1995 and José Manuel Calderón will contribute to the cause he led in the Final Four of 2005, his last year at Baskonia. To this we must add a special edition of Gran Canaria (Joan Pera), iconic Students and Gran Canaria (Gonzalo Martínez) and Barça and Slovenia (Erazem Lorbek), in addition to the special edition of Notre Dame del San Pablo Burgos signed by Dominique Sutton.

The president of the acb, Antonio Martín , has also joined in a personal capacity with a replica of the shirt that his brother Fernando wore in the Portland Trail Blazers of the NBA. Likewise, you can also buy a framed photo of Drazen Petrovic and Fernando Martín.

But also non-basketball characters have joined. Antonio Banderas brings an original helmet from the movie "The 33", signed by himself and other renowned actors and actresses. Darko Peric (Helsinki) brings us the signed mask from the fashion series, La Casa de Papel and Pablo Puyol, an original painting from another iconic series, Un Paso Adelante. The auction also reaches the kitchen: Ferran Adrià offers fans a special jacket from El Bulli Foundation.
