### Marvin Willoughby, Hamburg Towers General Manager

"We are happy and proud to be able to play in this international competition again. The trips in the 7DAYS EuroCup are something special for us. Our group includes well-known faces such as Slask Wroclaw, Turk Telekom Ankara and Dolomiti Energia Trento, who hosted us with a warm heart and were welcomed to our city. We look forward to meeting the new group opponents and already welcome them to Hamburg." 

### Rami Cohen, Hapoel Tel Aviv CEO

“Our fans are going to enjoy themselves. The destinations are wonderful and we will have a lot of fans at our away games. Our goal is to advance to the next stage despite the high level of play. We are growing and moving forward all the time; this is what Hapoel Tel Aviv deserves. This year we broke all our records in continuation from the previous year. Thousands of fans renewed their season tickets, J’Covan Brown is staying and Tomer Ginat is back, we have sold all our tickets to the domestic league – we couldn’t believe that would happen at such an early stage of the summer. The signing of Tomer Ginat helped with that. In essence, the day he signed, the tickets were finished. Two years ago, we began the process to improve our organizational framework, most of our employees are full time – strength coach, assistant coach, physical therapists, media. You come to the arena and people who are working and giving everything for Hapoel Tel Aviv. I am certain we’ll be up for the challenge.”

### Amara Sy, Paris Basketball player

"All I can say is that we are really excited for our first appearance in a European competition. The EuroCup is high-level. We are a young club, we want to grow and learn everyday and the EuroCup is perfect for that, because it has big clubs with big history. We can't wait to play our first game, we are really excited."

### Lenz Balan, London Lions vice-president

"Hopefully we'll do really well. We are are really excited to represent British basketball, which we think it's a sleeping giant on the rise. We want to make sure that we can create a team that is competitive, bring back some of the best Bristish players. We are really excited about it. We have work ahead of us, but we're so excited to be a part of this."

### Brett Burman, London Lions general manager

"It’s a tough draw with a lot of successful teams who have been here and won on this stage. There's only one option now; embrace the challenge and get to work immediately. We look forward to the preparation, which starts today, as our sights are set on competing with the best of this group."

### Makis Giatras, Promitheas Patras head coach

We are also going to Israel, Spain…it is going to ba a long and challenging season, but we want to compete and get the best out of it. We want to play better basketball than last year."

### Juan Ramon Marrero, Gran Canaria general manager

"What's most important is that we are once again in the EuroCup, Luckily, we are club with a big background in the competition, which means that we are also doing a good job in our domestic league. The group was going to be tough no matter what, but it is important to finish putting together our team and make it as competitive as possible when the EuroCup starts in October, so that we can have a good season. We are excited to keep competing at the highest level, like we did in previous seasons, reaching the quarterfinals, semifinals, even the finals. Our season in Europe is always important for the club, for our season." 

### Michal Lizak, Slask Wroclaw president

"First of all, for us, it is a great honor to be part of the EuroCup and the EuroLeague family for the second year in a row. Last year, we returned to the EuroCup and after 20 years, we won the Polish championship. I hope this is the beginning of something bigger here in Wroclaw. We will play against great opponents in great cities. There are great team names and I expect big fan bases. It will be a very competitive season for each and every club. For Polish basketball, it is important to have teams in each and every European competition. For sure, it is a big step for us and it helps us make big things. We are thinking on opening a new arena in Wroclaw, which would open the door to really great partners." 

### Serhat Dikmen, Turk Telekom Ankara sports director

"Team we will face next season are very good and tough. A difficult group with tough teams, but we will try to do our best. We need our fans' support. We had 3,000, 4,000 people waiting for our home games."

Maldunas (2.04 meters, 29 years old) joined Lietkabelis in 2019 and has been with the club since. He averaged 5.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 19 appearances in the EuroCup last season. Maldunas’s finest game came in the last game of the season when he posted 10 points on 5-of-6 shooting plus 9 rebounds in the EuroCup Eighthfinals loss at Virtus Segafredo Bologna. After playing college basketball at Dartmouth College, Maldunas began his professional career in Spain with Penas Huesca. He has also played for Palencia in Spain and for Nevezis Kedainiai in Lithuania.

Virtus sets assist mark for EuroCup champions

Indeed, Virtus recorded the highest assists per game average for a championship-winning team (22.0) in competition history. It bettered the previous record of the 2014-15 champions, Khimki Moscow Region, which had a higher total number of assists but a lower figure when it comes to assists per game (21.8).

Star playmaker Milos Teodosic, who averaged 7.9 assists in 15 games for Virtus in 2021-22, did a great job of keeping everyone involved, particularly in the latter stages of the season. In fact, in four of Virtus's last five regular-season games, Teodosic recorded a double-digit number of assists. He was also aided by fellow point guard Alessandro Pajola who averaged 3.9 assists in 21 games. 

Historically, several teams playing such eye-pleasing basketball have been in the mix to lift the silverware at the end of the season. Take the 2018-19 ALBA Berlin team, for example, which averaged 21.8 assists per game. It ended up losing in the final to Valencia Basket, which had the second-highest total that season with 20.3.

Then there is the Virtus squad from the 2020-21 season, which averaged a competition record of 23.4 assists per game and reached the semifinals before falling to UNICS Kazan. However, AS Monaco, which won the EuroCup that year, had a far inferior assist average, 14.8.

The 2021-22 Virtus team stands at the mountaintop in assists per game, as it recorded the highest-ever figure for a championship team. After the aforementioned 2014-15 Khimki side is Valencia Basket from 2018-19, Khimki from 2011-12 and Valencia from 2013-14.

Another factor that makes Virtus's triumph in 2022 even more impressive is the fact that it became just the fifth team to lead the EuroCup in assists per game en route to winning the title. 

The last three years have seen Virtus put up three of the EuroCup's seven-highest assist per game figures, with this period aligning with the time that Teodosic has been on the team. It will be interesting to see if Virtus and Teodosic can replicate the same results in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague next season.

Virtus Segafredo Bologna showed during the 2021-22 7DAYS EuroCup season that it is possible to become champions by sharing the ball.
