Talk about high praise for San Antonio Spurs' Manu Ginobili.

Outgoing U.S. President Barack H. Obama made a stop in Argentina recently and while speaking with young people, praised Ginobili as one of the best basketball players in the world.

I can confirm that Ginobili is not only good, but one of the best players in the world. The Argentines should be proud because he is a great champion," said the President.

And if that wasn't enough, Obama went on to say the obvious about the Spurs - they seem to never stop winning.

They do not stop to win," he added laughing.

Can't argue here with the P.O.T.U.S. Manu is a lock for the Basketball Hall of Fame. His international basketball resume includes Olympic medals, Italian league MVPs, FIBA titles and much, much more. His NBA resume includes NBA titles, All-Star nods, A Sixth Man of the Year Award and more.

And at age 38, this season he is still chipping in averaging 10.5 points off the bench for San Antonio.

Now let's just hope he gets one more NBA title before he calls it a career so he and Obama can meet one more time before the next President comes into the White House.
