Tony Parker became during the group stage the all time Eurobasket scorer, surpassing Nick Galis. Of course, the averages of Nick Galis’ scoring will be really hard to be matched, even if Dirk Nowitzki also surpassed him in the total and Pau Gasol is the next in line to do so.
However after Thursday’s semifinal, the captain of the French national team and San Antonio Spurs star became also the all time top passer of the Eurobaskets with 224 assists, surpassing Lithuanian legend Sarunas Jasikevicius (219). Parker has at this point the advantage, however Milos Teodosic who has 174 assists and he is still 28 years old can reach the top in the future.
