AX Armani Exchange Milan will compete at the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Final Four for the first time in 29 years. One of the iconic squads in Italian basketball, Milan had not been this close to the EuroLeague title since 1992, in which it lost against eventual champion Partizan Belgrade in the semifinals. It is a return-to-form for Italian basketball, too. The last Italian team to reach the Final Four was Montepaschi Siena in 2011.
Milan, however, is not your average Final Four newcomer. It features three EuroLeague champions and the players on the roster between them boast 22 previous Final Four appearances. And of course, Ettore Messina is one of the winningest coaches in European basketball. Messina has won four EuroLeague titles, including the last one for an Italian Club - Kinder Bologna in 2001. Only Zeljko Obradovic (18) has more Final Four appearances than Messina’s 15.

May 24, 2021 by Euroleague.net/graphics by Darius Garuolis Print A high-scoring offense and a trip to the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Final Four has almost become an annual tradition for CSKA Moscow in May. The same is true this season as the top four teams are set to face off in Cologne, Germany.
CSKA heads to its record ninth consecutive Final Four as the top-scoring team in the competition. CSKA has averaged 84.4 points per game, just a tad ahead of its semifinals opponent, Anadolu Efes Istanbul, which ranks second at 84.1.
Being the best scoring team in the competition is far from new for CSKA. Since Dimitris Itoudis took over at the bench of the Russian powerhouse in 2014, CSKA is the only team that has scored more than 20,000 total points and its 87.0 points per game are almost 3 points better than the next best team over those seven years.
