Professional career

In 2005, he moved to Spanish club FC Barcelona. In July 2011, he signed a two-year deal with Italian club Pallacanestro Cantù.[2]

On 6 July 2012 Italian club Emporio Armani Milano, officially announced the signing of Basile, to a one-year contract.[3] His contract with the team expired on 30 June 2013 and he became a free agent.[4]

He finished his career with Italian club Orlandina Basket, and last played in the 2015–16 season.[5]


National team career


Basile was the leader of the men's Italy national basketball team that won the silver medal at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, which was the best result for Italy since they took the silver medal at the 1980 Summer Olympics. He also helped Italy beat Team USA, by a score of 95-78, by scoring 25 points in a pre-Olympic friendly game against the US in 2004.[6] His medals with the Italy national team also include a gold medal at the EuroBasket 1999, a bronze medal at the EuroBasket 2003, and a silver medal at the 1997 Mediterranean Games.


Player profile


Basile excelled in the role of shooting guard, or point forward, and was a very effective three-point shooter. He invented and named the "tiro ignorante" ("ignorant shot"), a three-point shot taken under difficult conditions, and which would surprise his opponents.
