SAN ANTONIO – Spurs guard Manu Ginobili’s three sons all wore different costumes for Halloween.

The 7-year-old twins dressed up as a ghost and a ninja. Luca, the youngest, was a bat.

The 3-year-old’s choice raised eyebrows, considering Ginobili’s painful history with the creature of the night.

On Halloween night 2009, Ginobili famously swatted a bat with his bare hand during a game against Sacramento after it swooped into the AT&T Center and descended on the court.

After felling the bat, Ginobili carried the creature off the court much to the delight of the fans.
