On Friday, the eve of the ceremony at the Springfield temple, Tony Parker received his NBA legend ring and jacket. For his induction into the Hall of Fame, the Frenchman is supported by several of his relatives, starting with his children and his partner Alizé Lim.
It was surrounded by his family that Tony Parker received his precious basketball legend ring. On Friday August 11, the former French basketball player was inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame at a first event held at the Mohegan Sun Hotel in Connecticut. Proud to wear his new orange jacket, the 41-year-old ex-athlete, retired since 2019, was able to count on the presence of his companion Alizé Lim and that of his two boys.
“Precious family moments while getting the #HOF jacket and ring,” wrote Tony Parker on his Instagram account, in the caption of a video showing him on the photocall, with partner and children. It has now been three years since the basketball player shares the life of the tennis player. This evening was an opportunity to see the lovely complicity that binds the latter to Josh and Liam, 9 and 7 years old, the children of Tony Parker and his ex-wife Axelle Francine.

Among the many spectators gathered Friday evening at the Mohegan Sun, a star couple was also able to applaud the former star of the San Antonio Spurs: his friends Matt Pokora and Christina Milian, who arrived from France just in time for the ceremony. The basketball player and the singer have been good friends for a few years now, so much so that they spend their summer holidays together. In July, they also took advantage with their respective companions (and their band of friends) of a joyful cruise around the Mediterranean.
