Fenerbahce Beko is the second team to advance to the 2019 Final Four in Vitoria, joining already qualified Real Madrid.

This marks the 18th Final Four presence for coach Zeljko Obradovic, who’s been leading Fenerbahce since the 2013-14 season. Obradovic‘s result can’t be compared with any other coach in the history of European basketball since he had won nine EuroLeague titles in less than three decades.

His immense quality and impact to the Turkish team are obvious, as it is their fifth consecutive participation in the Final Four, and will look to repeat their 2017 success in Vitoria.
