Sergio Scariolo has a chance to join one of the most exclusive groups in European basketball history.

Only nine coaches have won a European championship at both club level and with a national team:

  • Zeljko Obradovic
  • Alexander Gomelsky
  • Dusan Ivkovic
  • Aleksandar Nikolic
  • Mirko Novosel
  • Svetislav Pesic
  • Sandro Gamba
  • Bogdan Tanjevic
  • David Blatt

Scariolo already owns major international success with Spain and now has an opportunity to add a EuroLeague title at club level with Real Madrid Baloncesto, which would make him the 10th coach to achieve the feat.
