Giambattista "Nino" Cescutti (13 June 1939 – 20 October 2023) was an Italian professional basketball player and head coach.

Life and career

Born in Udine, Cescutti started playing basketball in the Società Ginnastica Triestina team before moving to Simmenthal Milano, with whom he won the Scudetto in 1959.[1] After three years with Victoria Pesaro, with whom he won the title as Serie A top scorer twice, he moved to Ignis Varese, with whom he won the 1964 Scudetto, the 1966 FIBA Intercontinental Cup and the 1967 FIBA Saporta Cup.[1][2] He also played 30 matches with the Italian national team, taking part in 1963 FIBA World Championship and in EuroBasket 1963 and 1965.[1]

After his retirement, Cescutti worked as a physical education teacher, and occasionally served as head coach, notably winning a Swiss Basketball League and a Swiss Cup with SP Federale Lugano, and getting a Serie A promotion with Associazione Pallacanestro Udinese.[1][2] Hit by a car while walking in his hometown, he died on 20 October 2023, at the age of 84.[2]
