Dimitris Itoudis
CSKA Moscow | 08/09/1970 | Greece
In his fourth season in the competition as head coach, all of them with CSKA Moscow, the 48-year-old Greek led the Russian team to the top of the rankings in the regular season and, in fact, they’ve been there firmly since Round 6. With 24-6 (80%) this season, his career record went up to 100-124 and tied Xavi Pascual as the fastest one to reach a three-digit number of wins.
Zeljko Obradovic
Fenerbahce | 09/03/1960 | Serbia
There’s no needs for words when it comes to the competition’s multi-winning coach (nine titles with five different teams), who is guiding Fenerbahce on the road to defend the title. Under the 58-year-old Serb’s instructions, the Turkish team tallied a 21-9 (70%) record and finished in second place in the regular season.
Ioannis Sfairopoulos
Olympiacos | 21/03/1967 | Greece
In a season that’s been full of injuries, the 51-year-old Greek found the way to keep Olympiacos firmly within the Top 8 (Olympiacos, Real Madrid and Khimki are the only teams that managed this) and get them to finish in third place in the regular season. The 19-11 (63.3%) record bumped him up to a career record of 74-43 in the competition, always from the Reds’ bench.
