NBA veteran Tony Parker has found a new adventure. After partying at the Coachella festival, the former French point guard has traveled 6108 miles from Paris to Taipei for the 2024 Cathay NBA International High School Invitational Tournament. Soon, after getting his work done, Parker was seen heading to one of the top places in Taiwan.

Just recently, Parker shared a snap of him enjoying the Skyline 460 VIP experience sitting atop Taipei 101. He captioned the post 460. This special Skyline 460 allows their important visitors to stand or sit outside on the roof of Taipei 101. That comes with a spectacular 360-degree view of Taipei. What makes it more special is how this experience is offered only twice per day to guests fortunate enough to grab the opportunity. Others get to visit until the 91st floor.

The former San Antonio Spurs earlier made headlines for his photo with model Agathe Teyssier. However, leaving the conversation about his new rumored love interest far behind, he seemed to enjoy the view. Parker documented his entire experience at the Taipei 101 Observatory. He also shared a few snaps and snippets of him enjoying the experience on his Instagram Stories. Here is the post for you to see.

Tony Parker and Dominique Wilkins discuss NBA playoffs during the visit to Taipei 

He shared a picture of himself preparing by wearing the safety harnesses and captioned it, “Getting ready.” Another snap of him from the observatory was captioned, “Thanks @tissot-official for this experience.” Parker is the brand ambassador of Tissot. As the caption suggests, the brand must have organized the most popular VIP experience for their brand ambassador at the heart of Taipei. 

Parker wasn’t alone on this trip. Atlanta’s Hawks legend Dominique Wilkins also joined to attend the event. Parker shared some selfies of him with Taiwanese fans. During the pre-game press conference, the two NBA veterans also discussed their opinions on the NBA playoffs and championships.

The former San Antonio Spurs player spoke about his confidence in the Eastern Conference and said, “I think the East Conference will win. If the Celtics win the championship, the Nuggets should win the Western Conference championship. It will definitely be an exciting championship game this year.”
