Andrés Marcelo Nocioni (born November 30, 1979) is an Argentine former professional basketball player. He was a two-time All-EuroLeague selection before spending eight seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA), from 2004 to 2012.

Personal life
Andrés was the second son of Pedro José "Pilo" Nocioni and Ángela Palmira Roux, both siblings born in Santa Fe although the family lived in Gálvez, 80 km south of Santa Fe, where Andrés attended school.[6] Andrés and his wife, fellow Argentine Paula Raquel Aimonetto, have two sons, Laureano[7] and Benicio.

He played in 81 games during his rookie season and posted averages of 8.3 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 1.5 apg and 23.4 mpg.
While giving a teleconference interview with NBA.com, Nocioni spoke about the hard fouls and his suspension, "First, the one with Wade was completely my fault. It was a bad reaction on my part. If I had received any penalties because of it, it would be a fair sanction, but it was not given. However, the sanction set after the game against the Pistons is totally unfair. I see it as a totally real play taken out of context in the game — absolutely nothing happened. It was an accidental blow. Without purposely trying to, I hit him. I apologized on the court. I also asked Carlos Delfino to give my apologies to him, so I don't understand why there is a sanction for something totally normal in a game."[13] In Nocioni's first NBA playoff game, he scored 25 points and grabbed 18 rebounds while playing all 48 minutes. Due to his outstanding play, the sold-out United Center crowd in Chicago chanted his name. This game solidified Nocioni's status as a Chicago favorite.[14]

Sacramento was in a rebuilding process however, and Nocioni requested a trade following a decrease in playing time.[22]
