Lionel Messi’s Wife Antonela Pens Down 5-Word Reaction to First NBA Game Experience With With Husband and Kids

Sporting icons outside of soccer have showered their love on Lionel Messi. LeBron James and Serena Williams took to Fort Lauderdale to watch his Inter Miami debut. On a similar note, Messi has now given back his time and concern to the NBA world, as he and his family took to the Kaseya Center the previous night to cheer on the Miami Heat in the playoff tie against the Boston Celtics. Notably, this is the first time Messi’s wife Antonela Roccuzzo and their kids are watching an NBA showdown up close. And she celebrated the hoops outing in style.

On the court, the Heat-Celtics tie did not end in Lionel Messi and his family’s favor. Their favorite team, the Heat lost 88-102 to Boston at home. However, the Argentine family made the best of the outing with certain stylish snaps and rare Miami Heat memorabilia.

It was a day to remember for Antonela!

Antonela Roccuzzo took to Instagram and shared her family’s pictures, as they readied herself for some NBA playoff action in Florida. Antonela and her son Thiago could be seen posing together in one of those pictures. There is one warm photo of Lionel Messi and Antonela as they got ready to hit the Kaseya Center. Meanwhile, the entire family including Messi’s three kids, have came together to pose for another picture, flaunting black ‘Heat culture’ apparel. Notably, the the 3-time NBA winning franchise gifted three Heat keychains to the couple’s three sons. “With them everything is better,” Antonela captioned her post with this five-word message and added a basketball emoji.

Besides the Leo Messi family, his teammates, Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba, and Luis Suarez also attended the game. Similar to the Argentine’s kids, Busquets also flaunted Miami Heat apparel.

The Messi family’s recent adventure aside, thanks to consistent stellar shows from Messi and his teammates, Inter Miami is ruling the East in the MLS.

Inter Miami is on a dream ride, thanks to Lionel Messi’s excellence

Inter Miami’s initial few days in the ongoing MLS season were forgetful. A hamstring injury kept Lionel Messi out for more than five games, while the Herons struggled with back-to-back losses. But Messi returned and the Herons started to embrace victories again. The 8x Ballon d’Or winner scored and assisted to engineer a come-from-behind win against Sporting KC.

Thereafter, he scored twice in Miami’s 3-1 win against Nashville. Later, the World Champion unleashed the beast in him against New England as a sell-out crowd watched from the Gillette Stadium. He scored twice and assisted once to plunder the hosts 4-1 in their last game. Miami now sits on top of the Eastern Conference with more points than any MLS side.
