Several single-season records were beaten or threatened during the 2023-24 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague campaign with Markus Howard of Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz leading the way. Howard set the record for most points in a EuroLeague season with 759. He moved past Alexey Shved, who had the record at 740 points from the 2017-18 season with Khimki Moscow Region. Only two other players have scored at least 700 points in a EuroLeague season: Sasha Vezenkov, who scored 703 with Olympiacos Piraeus in the 2022-23 campaign, and Mike James of AS Monaco, who netted 700 points this season.
It comes as no surprise that Howard won the 2023-24 Alphonso Ford Top Scorer Trophy. He also set a record for most three-pointers in a season by burying 148 shots from beyond the arc. Shved had the previous record with 107 three-point shots made with Khimki in the 2017-18 season. Scottie Wilbekin also passed Shved with 122 triples this season to rank second all-time. Isaiah Canaan of Olympiacos Piraeus is now fourth on that list after making 94 three-pointers this season.
Howard attempted 370 three-pointers, which is also a record. He took 46 three-point shots more than Shved in the 2017-18 campaign. Howard also set a record for most field goals attempted, 589, which were 2 more than Shved six years ago. He was second all-time in field goals made with 254. Vezenkov made 261 during the 2022-23 season.

Nebo, Lessort also broke records
The battle for the single-season record for most offensive rebounds went down to the wire and Josh Nebo of Maccabi grabbed it. Nebo finished the 2023-24 EuroLeague season with 120 offensive boards. Walter Tavares of Real Madrid held the record since the 2020-21 season with 118 offensive rebounds, followed by Vincent Poirier of Baskonia with 117 in 2018-19 and Mathias Lessort of Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade with 116 in the 2022-23 season.
Lessort also set the single-season records for fouls drawn (274) and free throws attempted (267). The Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens center shattered the first record, which previously belonged to Keith Langford of UNICS Kazan (223) in the 2016-17 campaign. Lessort also attempted 60 free throws more than any other player in the EuroLeague in any season. James and Dzanan Musa of Real Madrid shared the record, attempting 207 free throws each in the 2022-23 season.
Close but no cigar
Lessort almost managed to break another record: the highest PIR ever in a EuroLeague season. He amassed a PIR of 805, only behind Vezenkov in his MVP season, 2022-23, which he finished with a PIR of 859. He also tied with Johnathan Motley for second place in most two-pointers made in a EuroLeague season, 204, trailing Jalen Reynolds, who scored 222 shots inside the arc for FC Bayern Munich in 2020-21.

Codi Miller-McIntyre had an impressive EuroLeague debut season in which he set the single-game season for most assists, dishing 20 against LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne on February 8, 2024, a night in which he also became the third player ever to record a triple-double in a EuroLeague game. Miller-McIntyre was also very close to setting a single-season record in assists. His 284 were 2 shy of Nick Calathes, who had 286 assists playing for Panathinaikos in 2018-19.
Moustapha Fall of Olympiacos made 78.9% of his two-point attempts, which ranked him second among players with more than 50 attempts inside the arc in a EuroLeague season. Only Tavares did better, sinking 79.4% of his two-point shots in 2018-19. Nebo finished the season with 276 rebounds, which is the third-most in a EuroLeague campaign, only trailing Tavares (289) and Poirier (282).
