Next Gen Team to take part in adidas Eurocamp this weekend

The adidas Eurocamp, which brings together some of the top basketball prospects around the world for a three-day event, opens today in Treviso, Italy. After a six-year hiatus, the camp returns to La Ghirada Sports Complex for its 16th edition.

The event is traditionally a showcase for players seeking to impress, among others, NBA personnel ahead of the NBA Draft and scouts from Euroleague Basketball teams. It will feature six teams with players in the 18-22 age group. Among them will be a USA Select team made up of top American prospects, Team Asia with the best young talent from that continent, two Eurocamp select teams, as adidas 3SSB select team and for the first time, the adidas Next Gen Team.

The Next Gen Team is comprised of top 18-and-under European talents who took part in one of the four Euroleague Basketball adidas Next Generation Tournament qualifying events and/or the U18 Next Generation Select Team at the ANGT Finals last month at the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Final Four in Kaunas, Lithuania.

The Eurocamp offers the players the chance to work out and play under professional coaches from both sides of the Atlantic, including Next Gen Team head coach Petteri Koponen, and to showcase their skills in front of a wide audience of evaluators. Past editions of the Eurocamp have featured a host of future stars, including All-EuroLeague selections Mathias Lessort and Dzanan Musa and NBA All-Stars Bam Adebayo and Jaylen Brown. A total 41 players who appeared in the NBA last season and 71 from Euroleague Basketball competitions took part in the Eurocamp.

All Eurocamp games will be streamed via Euroleague Basketball partner Skweek on its [website ](https://app.skweek.tv/home)and [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@skweekTV/streams). Skweek was the exclusive broadcast partner for the ANGT Finals this season.

U18 Real Madrid v U18 Next Generation Select Team (2023-05-21T09:30:00.000Z)

The group stage of the 2023 Adidas EuroLeague Next Generation Tournament Finals has now come to a close and the two undefeated teams, U18 Next Generation Select Team and U18 Real Madrid, are set to battle for the junior crown in the ANGT Championship Game on Sunday.

Real was the first to book its ticket for Sunday's title game, following [its 72-54 triumph](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/ngt/game-center/2022-23-kaunas-finals/u18-real-madrid-u18-fc-barcelona/JTF22/10/) against FC Barcelona on Saturday morning in the last game of Group A. This will be Los Blancos' sixth title bout since 2014, as they look to add to their three ANGT titles (2015, 2019 and 2021). Jan Vide has averaged 22.0 points and 5.3 rebounds in Kaunas for Real, which has allowed just 66.6 points per game.

NGS Team clinched its place in Sunday's game by holding off the host team, U18 Zalgiris Kaunas, [73-62 in the final game](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/ngt/game-center/2022-23-kaunas-finals/u18-next-generation-select-team-u18-zalgiris-kaunas/JTF22/12/) of Saturday's program. Mouhamed Faye shined in the deciding game with 33 points, 11 rebounds and 3 steals and a PIR of 52. Faye has been the team's top performer at Kaunas Sports Hall over the past three days, posting 23.0 points and 12.0 rebounds. This will be the second straight time that NGS Team plays in the title bout, having lost to U18 Mega MIS Belgrade last season.

The championship game is set for 12:30 local time (11:30 CEST) on Sunday at Kaunas Sports Hall, and [it will be streamed live for free](https://app.skweek.tv/home) on the live streaming and VOD platform SKWEEK, just like all the other ANGT Finals games in Kaunas.

ANGT Finals MVP Vide extra motivated by final game

U18 Real Madrid was hungry to return to the top of Europe and win the 2023 Euroleague Basketball Adidas Next Generation Tournament title. But there was extra motivation for [Jan Vide](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/ngt/players/jan-vide/011028/) as the Real guard was playing his final youth game for the team.

Vide poured in 19 points to go with 7 rebounds and 6 assists for an index rating of 25 in [Real’s 71-60 victory](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/ngt/game-center/2022-23-kaunas-finals/u18-real-madrid-u18-next-generation-select-team/JTF22/13/#boxscore) over U18 Next Generation Select Team for the club’s record fourth ANGT crown.

"Winning the most important tournament - the hardest one - with this team, I have the privilege of playing with those guys and that staff. It’s amazing. I have no words," said Vide, who was named ANGT Finals Most Valuable Player.

For the tournament, the Slovenian guard averaged 21.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.0 steals for an average PIR of 21.3.

"It feels amazing. We knew that our season was good except for losing the domestic (U18) championship. We showed everyone how good we are. When things go bad we stay together, and we demonstrated that on the court and in the end, we won. And we own the ring now," Vide said.

After winning the U18 continental championship in 2019 and 2021, Real came up short last season, losing to U18 Mega MIS Belgrade in the group stage of the ANGT Finals in Belgrade to miss out on the title bout - which gave returnees Vide, Ismaila Diagne and Abel Delicado extra motivation for this season.

"Last year was a little harder for us. We had some bad luck. This year we had a great team, a great coaching staff. It was just more motivation to get to the final and get another ring," Vide said.

It was actually Vide's second ANGT championship ring as he played for Real on its title-winning team in 2021. The guard from Ljubljana played just 8:19 minutes and did not score in Real’s 81-78 overtime victory over U18 FC Barcelona.

"This time is much more emotional for me because it’s my last year here so I had a bigger role," said Vide, who was also wearing his ring from 2021 after the ANGT Championship Game in Kaunas. "It's my last year with the junior team. I was getting emotional. I really wanted to win because at the start of the season we were talking about this moment."

Vide was the only member of Real’s starting five who was born in 2005, meaning the other four players - Hugo Gonzalez, Egor Demin, Diagne and Mitar Bosnjakovic could all be back next season to help Real defend the ANGT title.

"If they don't win it next year, I don’t know what’s going to happen," Vide said with a little smile. "Yeah, that is a little pressure."

But that group will also have the same motivation Vide had this season.
