Great to see two @easyCreditBBL clubs really rely on German players. Seven of 10 starters for Bayern and ALBA in Games 1 and 2 of finals were Germans
So far, 56.0% of the points have come from Germans, who have played 55.4% of the minutes
Below a comparison to other top Finals:

Great write-up by Ignacio here! Grateful that I got the chance to add a few thoughts about one of the most interesting internationals in this draft class!

I’ll never get tired of saying it, but chase your dreams relentlessly. Every day. Every day… I’ve been following my heart for ten years now, since the deepest pits of depression. It’s the furthest thing from easy. I lost my father in January, and I think yesterday was my first dinner since October that I had real food and not Kraft cheese singles on bread.

But every day I’m doing what I love with who I love. I’m working in the community with kids with autism, I’m training and coaching basketball at my local gym and parks, and I’m meeting new people every day in my community and on here. I cherish every moment with my family and friends… if I had no tomorrow, I will have lived happy.

Humanity triumphs over all, and it’s worth sacrificing every fiber in your being fighting for it.

Let others call you stupid, let them call you what they want. But never let them say that you’re not being you.

There’s something so powerful to being yourself. You feel the most alive, even when you’re exhausted and struggling.

There’s beauty to being alive. There’s beauty to being you. Protect it, cherish it, embrace it.

While the majority of the European basketball world is enjoying Athens, I'm happy to take an early look at the German 2012 generation at the U14 Top 8 in Berlin.

[Eurohopes @Eurohopes]

Our Director of Scouting, @albertjv95 , and our Editor-in-Chief, @PCristofori03 , will be in Athens (Greece) this weekend to attend ANGE Finals.

This new pathway creates an intriguing dynamic for international prospects. For instance, Jack Kayil (already committed to Gonzaga) now could comfortably enter the 2026 NBA Draft. Either he gets a guaranteed deal in the first round or he joins the Zags as a second rounder/ UDFA.

[Jonathan Götting @j_goetting]

For @Eurohopes, I wrote about the players to watch for the upcoming JBBL and NBBL TOP4 this weekend. Will be a loaded field with a bunch of intriguing talents.

[Eurohopes @Eurohopes]

The JBBL and NBBL German TOP4 tournaments tip off this upcoming weekend in Berlin.

In this article, our collaborator @j_goetting introduces the participating teams and highlights some of the key prospects to keep an eye on throughout the weekend

📝Adding my two cents to this topic:

"Sick of" might not be the best expression. I try to help anyone who needs help or advice - regardless of their school, club, organization, title, level - because it is the right thing to do.

At the same time, I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to reply to my messages. To be honest, there were more unread or unanswered messages than people might expect. But since I can’t control that, I don’t waste my energy or time on it...

Of course, there are levels to the amount of information I give or the energy I spend answering a request. That depends on the depth of our relationship but I always try to give at least something.

Another factor is that working for a club gives me limitations on how much I can share. Most information is internal and since the club pays me for my knowledge/expertise, it wouldn't be fair to share that same information with others for free.

However, what I am slowly becoming "sick of" is the expectation to get all the information from various scouts - whether here on X or elsewhere - for free. Many of us have spent days, weeks, months and even years following these players in our free time, out of passion without being paid for it.

I am grateful to work for an organization and getting paid for what I do, there aren't many positions like this in Europe - although I believe many organizations would need one - but many great scouts never get that opportunity.

They often offer consulting services but we run into the same problem again: clubs/schools/coaches (unfortunately) aren't willing to pay much for the services but expect all the information to be given out to them for free.

I am giving you an advice here: do your research, subscribe to a consulting service, treat it as an investment and you will see the value. It is a bargain compared to the money most organizations spend (or better said - waste) on signing the wrong players.

NEW RANKING UPDATE

We have updated our 2011-born players list.

Recent reports suggesting that Stefan Joksimovic has been linked with a potential move to the NCAA are inaccurate. As his agent, I confirm that he remains fully committed to @Baskonia for next season and is focused on his development and the upcoming challenges with the club.

[Jon Chepkevich @JonChep]

Awesome international recruiting snag for Luke Murray’s Eagles.

Total stud the past two summers at the FIBA U19 World Cup and U18 EuroBasket.

Not nearly the shooter, but has some Kon Knueppel-esque qualities to his game as a 6’7” guard with skill, smarts, feel, and toughness.

[Jon Chepkevich @JonChep]

Agency 🔮’s and 📝’s have been added and mock updates have been logged over the past week.

Intel continues to pour in as the prospect field takes shape.
