Three days of the Final Four, one game, a distinction, an impressive performance, a lead, a play, a shot. Anything can make the difference and give a team the trophy.

In the 16 Final Fours that have come before, there have been seven different European champions. Panathinaikos celebrated four times (2002, 2007, 2009, 2011), CSKA Moscow (2006, 2008, 2016) and Maccabi Tel Aviv (2004, 2005, 2014) three times each, Olympiacos (2012, 2013) and Barcelona (2003, 2010) two times each, while Fenerbahce (2017) and Real Madrid (2015) have one each.

Some of these successes were accompanied by achievements that have made history. Besides, climbing to the top of Europe is a feat, and the “garnish” of this feat is made with all the records that were broken for it to take place.
