VIDEO: Marco Belinelli breaks down in tears after Spurs win title

Marco Belinelli spent most of his NBA career going from team to team. Few of them made any impact in the postseason, if at all.

The 28-year-old signed with the San Antonio Spurs last July and posted career high percentages in field goals, three-pointers and free throws. When the Spurs took their fifth franchise NBA title last weekend, Belinelli became the first Italian player to win an NBA championship.

Not one for making a scene, Belinelli couldn't contain his emotions when San Antonio clinched. He broke down in tears during an interview with Italian media.

One YouTube commenter attributes his emotions to the support of his parents for believing in him.
