Željko Obradović is back at Panathinaikos. It is a simple sentence, but it comes with almost 25 years of European basketball history behind it. The Athens club has confirmed a three-year contract through the summer of 2029. Fourteen years after their first spell together ended, Obradović will once again take charge of Panathinaikos. Very few […]
Over the last few days, reports have linked Bonzie Colson with a move to Olympiacos as a potential replacement for Alec Peters. In basketball terms, it makes perfect sense. Few players in Europe are better suited for that role. Still, at 30 and right in the middle of his prime, Colson faces a different question. […]
Zeljko Obradovic is universally recognized as the greatest coach in European basketball history, and his résumé speaks for itself. Equally important, however, are the words of Panathinaikos’ superstars — the players he will be coaching in Athens from next season. The “Lord of the Rings” of European basketball returned to Panathinaikos after 14 years, and […]
There are comebacks that generate excitement, and then there are comebacks that make history. Željko Obradović’s reunion with Panathinaikos undoubtedly belongs in the latter category. Fourteen years after the end of his first spell with the club, the man who became synonymous with the greatest achievements in the Greens’ history has returned home, once again […]

European basketball has always been intertwined with politics, geography, and shifting geopolitical realities, but the modern EuroLeague landscape is increasingly being shaped by forces far beyond the court. The recent expansion of the competition and the inclusion of clubs from politically sensitive regions have highlighted a growing tension between sporting ambition and security reality. Teams […]
On March 8, La Laguna Tenerife raised eyebrows across European basketball by announcing the signing of Patty Mills. Yet, in many ways, the Canary Islands seemed like the perfect place for the Australian point guard to extend his remarkable career. Under head coach Txus Vidorreta, Tenerife have built a reputation as one of the continent’s […]
When Dzanan Musa joined Dubai Basketball last summer, he had two goals: first, to change the basketball status of the club from the United Arab Emirates, and second, to prove that he is a leader capable of carrying a team to success at the highest level. EuroLeague Final Four 2022-23: 6.5 points, 1.5 rebounds and […]

Everyone knew it was coming. Yet when Panathinaikos officially announced Željko Obradović’s return, it still felt surreal. That is what happens when the greatest coach in European basketball history is involved. “I don’t see myself anywhere but this club. Either I’ll be here, or I won’t coach at all.” Those were Obradović’s words on February […]

Most visitors come to Dubrovnik for the same reasons. They come for the limestone streets polished smooth by centuries of footsteps. For the imposing walls that once protected one of the Adriatic’s most prosperous maritime republics. For the panoramic views that make the climb worthwhile, even after what feels like an endless staircase. And lately, […]
