“AS Monaco”, which withdrew from the EuroLeague, was supposed to start in the EuroCup competition, but removal from the French league takes away this opportunity.
“Bosna” would return to the EuroCup competition after a long break – the last time they played here was in the 2008-09 season. Last season, “Bosna” competed in the FIBA Europe Cup and reached the quarterfinals.
Under the leadership of coach Bogdan Tanjević, “Bosna” became a local basketball power in the eighth decade, led forward by one of the best players in European basketball history – Mirza Delibašić, and in 1979 “Bosna” won the European Champions Cup, which now equates to a EuroLeague victory.
