Valencia's Golden Age
The most pleasant surprise of the Euroleague this season, Valencia, will debut at the final tournament in Athens (May 22-24) as by far the youngest club in contention with Real, Olympiacos, and the defending champions Fenerbahce. In this historic moment for the club, founded 40 years ago, the role of the man who put it on the European basketball map should be especially emphasized, and that is the Serbian expert Mihajlo Miki Vuković (1944-2021), whom the Spaniards rightly call the "father of modern Valencia".
