+109 – On this day in 1956, Czechoslovakia beat Austria 145-36 at the Women’s EuroBasket, the last time a team won by a 100+ point margin at EuroBasket (Men & Women). Outrageous.

[OptaSTATS @OptaSTATS]

In NBA history, only once has a player had:

150+ points
75+ rebounds
50+ FT made
15+ threes made
15+ blocks
10+ steals

...over any 7-game span, regular season or playoffs.

That one instance was Victor Wembanyama in the Western Conference Finals to oust the defending champs.

[Alessandro Luigi Maggi @AlessandroMagg4]

🟢⚪️Ergin Ataman is set to step down as Panathinaikos head coach. Now. The team trained today without their coach, who has been granted three days’ leave; training is expected to resume as normal tomorrow.

However, it is certain that he will leave at the end of the season. There is also talk of a sensational return for Zeljko Obradovic.

A meeting between the Turkish coach and Dimitris Giannakopoulos is scheduled for tomorrow. Anything could happen.
