Having reached the Final Four for a fourth time and the second consecutively, following on its Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Championship Game appearance in 2019, Anadolu Efes Istanbul is looking for its first European trophy in 25 years. Back in 1996, Efes became the first Turkish club in any sport to win a pan-European competition, the Korac Cup. In all those successful seasons, head coach Ergin Ataman was involved in one way or another.
Enjoying his third stint with Efes, Ataman is arguably the most successful coach in Turkish basketball history. He worked for Aydin Ors as an assistant coach when Efes won the Korac Cup in 1996. After he took over as head coach, Efes made it to the Final Four for the first time in 2000. In 2019, Ataman led Efes to bigger heights, playing in its first EuroLeague Championship Game and lifting the Turkish League trophy after a decade.

The city of Cologne has seen its fair share of great basketball over the years. Saturn Cologne captured four German League championships in the 1980s. In March 2000, Koelnarena set a European basketball record when 20,000 fans packed the stands for a German league game. And in a few weeks, the same venue, now known as Lanxess Arena, will host the 2021 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Final Four.
When it comes to the longest extended period of basketball greatness in the city, there is no question that it was the seven-season run RheinEnergie Cologne had as a force in German basketball and a club to keep an eye on across the continent. RheinEnergie helped launch the careers of several future EuroLeague stars with well-respected head coaches on the bench.
