Andrés Marcelo Nocioni (born November 30, 1979) is an Argentine-Italian professional basketball player for Real Madrid of the Spanish Liga ACB. Early in his career he played as a small forward, but has spent the latter years of his career as a power forward. He was a two-time All-EuroLeague selection before spending eight seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA), from 2004 to 2012. Nocioni won a EuroLeague title in 2015, earning the EuroLeague Final Four MVP Award in the process.

A regular member of the Argentine national team, Nocioni was a part of the team that won a gold medal at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. He also helped the Argentine national team to win the bronze medal at the 2008 Summer Olympics, and a silver medal at the 2002 FIBA World Championship in Indianapolis.

Andrés was the second son of Pedro José Pilo Nocioni and Ángela Palmira Roux, both also born in Santa Fe. Though both he and his older brother Pablo were born in Santa Fe, the family actually lived in Gálvez, 80 km south of Santa Fe, where Andrés attended school. Andrés and his wife, fellow Argentine Paula Raquel Aimonetto, have two sons, Laureano and Benicio. Nocioni is known as Chapu after the children TV series El Chapulín Colorado, which was very popular in Argentina. He holds Argentine and Italian citizenships.
