The news of Pau Gasol’s retirement may not have hit us by surprise, though his farewell ceremony served as a perfect reminder of his great career and overall presence on and off the court. Hear as we share our own fond memories of the Spanish legend, a time-travel of sorts!
On top of this busy week, the new Basketball Champions League season tipped off with new and familiar faces, and we examine five former NBAers who will make their appearance in the competition this season.
We conclude this week’s episode with a look into Round 2 of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague and the two hot rematches: UNICS Kazan vs. AS Monaco (EuroCup 2021 Finals) and Anadolu Efes vs. CSKA Moscow (2019 championship game, 2021 Final Four semifinal), while we also dive into the refurbished EuroLeague Fantasy Challenge with five must-have picks for Round 2!
