Riddle: Solution

As many of you have answered (Alvaro, Cristobal, Mike, Pablo, Jorge, Wilt and Kastav) our riddle's starring was the pink panther, Toni Kukoc.

It's Bormio (Italy) 1987, Junior World Championship, game between Yugoslavia and USA. The young Toni Kukoc made 11 three pointers to the american team. It was his first big step, in a world without the communications we have today, his first great international success.

Later he would be considered one of the best european players, at the same level as Arvidas Sabonis or Drazen Petrovic (although none of them won the NBA ring, as Kukoc did).

Here you can see the Kukoc's highlights of that game.
