Avengers – Infinity War is dominating cinemas all over the world. Being cast by talented actors, the movie matched the expectations of filmgoers and comic book fans.
And in European basketball, the EuroLeague “Avengers” are back! You might remember the 2015 version but unfortunately and unlike Marvel studios, we had to recast!
Along with the reigning champs Fenerbahce Dogus, CSKA Moscow, Real Madrid and Zalgiris Kaunas will fight in the Infinity War of the European basketball and they will all try to raise the EuroLeague trophy of 2018 in their hands.
While making our choices, we took into consideration the similarities between the basketball stars and superheroes. Moreover, we came to a point of writing an appropriate story for the superhero universe. Still, we would be glad to hear your take in a crossover between the Earth’s mightiest heroes and the EuroLeague’s top stars!
And if you have not seen the movie yet, don’t worry! This article is spoiler free. But enough with the prologue. It’s time to meet the EuroLeague Avengers!
