Manu Ginobili welcomes Spurs teammate Patty Mills to Buenos Aires

Most of year, Manu Ginobili lives and works far from his home country of Argentina. He's played for years in the NBA with the San Antonio Spurs. Ahead of the Olympic Games in Rio, however, he was able to spend some time in the capital city of Argentina, Buenos Aires. Ginobili wasn't alone, either. He was joined by Spurs point guard Patty Mills, who plays internationally for Australia.

Although Argentina is famed for steaks, there was something sweeter on offer for the pair on the table -- a lollipop tree.

Olympic basketball begins on Aug. 6.
