Prometheus defeats Paris and enters the EuroCup KO round with home advantage
Anthony Cowan worked wonders as Prometheus defeated Paris (84-81) to secure home field advantage early in the EuroCup knockout round.
After all, Prometheus secured fourth place in his group in the EuroCup with his home win against Paris (84:81) on the 17th day of the group stage of the competition.
The Patras team rose to 11-6 and left the French 10-7 while beating them twice, meaning a possible draw would prevail after the 18th and final day of play.
Prometheus will thus move into the EuroCup KO round with home advantage in the round of 16, but also with the aim of continuing this year’s good European course to the best possible annual final.
Anthony Cowan had an incredible performance (38 points and the big 3-pointer for 84-81 in 4.1″) to fill the void left by John Thomason’s injury and the truth is he’s almost alone Played against anyone who had extremely high stats at the same time.
Paris struggled without Kyle Allman, lined up with nine men and fought with nine, excellently with Tyrone Wallace but also very much alone for much of the game.
The EuroCup KO round begins with the round of 16 on April 12th.

Real Madrid and Gran Canaria managed the EuroLeague and EuroCup double this year. For the third time, two Spanish teams reach the top of both competitions in the same season.
The consistency of the Spanish teams in recent years is admirable. This year, for the third time since 2000, two teams from the Iberian Peninsula have won the EuroLeague and the EuroCup in the same season.
Through the hands of Sergio Yul, Real Olympiakos hit the canvas in the Final Four 2023 in Kaunas and lifted their 11th trophy in Europe’s top club competition. Not long ago, Gran Canaria had defeated Turk Telekom to become champions of the EuroCup, securing their place in the EuroLeague. Although their presence there next season is far from certain, it needs to be thought about.
Barcelona and Valencia have actually managed this informal double twice in the past. In the 2002/03 season, the Blaugrana won their first EuroLeague, while the Orange were crowned EuroCup champions and clinched their first European title. Simultaneous successes in the EuroLeague and the EuroCup were achieved again by Barcelona and Valencia in the 2009/10 season.

Elias Papatheodorou is expected to become Prometheus’ new manager as both teams are close to a final agreement. The formalities for the announcement remain in place.
From Rhodes to Patras. Elias Papatheodorou is set to succeed Yannis Christopoulos as technical director of Prometheus.
The veteran technician, who guided Kolossos to this year’s Basket League play-offs, is close to agreeing a cooperation deal with the Achaean club. In fact, the talks between the two sides are so advanced that only a major emergency can “annul” the “marriage.”
Therefore, in the coming days, the announcement of Prometheus Patras is expected, which will formalize the start of cooperation with Ilias Papatheodorou.

Turkish Football Federation: ‘We will review our relationship with EuroCup after coach Can’ injury’
The Turkish Basketball Federation appeared to be dissatisfied with the EuroCup after the “strange” accident involving Turk Telecom coach Erdem Can on the day of the final.
The focus is on the accident of the coach, Erdem Can, apparently caused intentionally by the driver of the bus that took the Turk Telecom team to the Gran Canaria stadium for training on the day of the EuroCup final, which is news and has provoked violent reactions. In this regard, the Turkish Basketball Federation issued a sharp statement, stressing that it would review its ties with the organizing authority.
“While participating in the EuroCup final, our representative Turk Telekom was defeated by Gran Canaria and took second place. The Turkish Basketball Federation is deeply saddened by the infamous accident that resulted in the coach’s injury Erdem Can when Turk Telecom went to pre-game practice.
Despite the shocking and unprecedented events, and despite the awards made in the game, our team, Turk Telecom, has made all of Turkey proud, regardless of the outcome. The horrific incidents experienced by the team before, during and after the crucial game that would decide the champion prompt the Turkish Basketball Federation to review its relationship with the EuroCup governing body.
Once again we send our best wishes to Turk Telecom for what happened off the field, which is far from sporting ideals. At the same time, we are announcing to the public that we will be monitoring the incident.” details the relevant announcement.
