Two ABA League countries, Serbia and Slovenia will battle for the gold at EuroBasket 2017 and fans will once more be able to enjoy the masterpieces of many players, that they used to enjoy watching on the ABA League courts, or still do, as they will fight for the gold at the European level.

Here are a few facts that you might have not known about the EuroBasket 2017 finalists before:

No less than 21 of the players that will appear at the EuroBasket 2017 final have played for ABA League clubs in the regional competition in the past.

No less than 8 of them have been playing for four different ABA League clubs in our competition last season.

No less than 11 of them have won the regional league championship trophy over the past seasons, winning no less than 21 trophies altogether.

We are proud of ABA League’s impact on development of basketball within our region.
