Ganados sat courtside to watch the historic first meeting of Clarkson and Green.
“Jordan Clarkson & Jalen Green became the first two players of Filipino descent to share the court in an NBA game!
Aside from meeting them both in person, I can’t believe I actually got to run around the court and fire the huuuggee shirt gun!” Gazini wrote on Facebook.
