Recently, Italian 37-year-old veteran Gallinari was interviewed.

Speaking of NBA career, Garlinari said: "The two and a half years in the Knicks were a great memory. I played for many teams in my career, and New York was undoubtedly a great starting point. I was having fun that time, but I think, you know, only the winning season will be impressive, for example, my first three years in Denver, the year in Los Angeles (the Clippers), In the first season of the Thunder and when we were in the Hawks, we reached the Eastern Conference Finals, which was the farthest I went in my career. Perhaps those winning seasons were the ones I remember the most."

Garlinari played in the NBA for 14 seasons, playing for the Knicks, Nuggets, Clippers, Thunder, Hawks and other teams, playing in 777 regular season games, averaging 28.8 minutes per game to score 14.9 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 0.7 steals.
