Mario Balotelli shows off basketball skills with a slam dunk

Ed Ran

Who knew Mario Balotelli was a pretty good basketball player?

When the Italian striker visited Charlotte, North Carolina (the state where basketball legend Michael Jordan played in college), he was seen taking a few shots from beyond the arc and ailing 3-pointers.

But after that, the athletic 6’2” star went on to soar through the air and dunk the basketball – a feat not many footballers can accomplish! Kobe Bryant is an AC Milan fan and even visited the training complex last year. We think he may have given him some pointers.

Super Mario? Indeed!
