It will be hard to top Round 12 of the 2024-25 BKT EuroCup season as we saw offensive records get broken, no size lead seemed safe, there were two overtime thrillers and we almost forgot to talk about the headliner between first and second placed teams in Group A.

Sergio Llebes and David Hein review the round in detail, focusing on the games between Valencia Basket and U-BT Cluj-Napoca as well as Buducnost VOLI Podgorica and Dolomiti Energia Trento. For our players to focus on, we chose Mfiondu Kabengele of Umana Reyer Venice; ratiopharm Ulm’s Marcio Santos; Trey Woodbury of Aris Midea Thessaloniki; and Joventut Badalona’s Yannick Kraag. And we had to at least mention Bahcesehir College Istanbul beating Dreamland Gran Canaria.

To finish off the podcast, we take a look at Round 13, which will take place on December 26 and January 2 and 3. Some of the highlights are Gran Canaria versus Hapoel Shlomo Tel Aviv as well as Ulm hosting Besiktas Fibabanka Istanbul, 7Bet-Lietkabelis Panevezys welcoming Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana; and Cosea JL Bourg en Bresse playing at Turk Telekom Ankara.
