Ergin Ataman opened the door to coaching “carousels” in the Euroleague when he left Anadolu Efes, and the famous Turkish club found his replacement.
Ataman certainly takes over Panathinaikos, and his successor on the bench of Efes is well-known to the public at the time.
The student and longtime assistant of Zeljko Obradovic, Erdem Džan, is in question.
According to the Turkish sports insider “Fanatik”, Can is close to signing a contract with Efes.
The Turkish expert, the absolute revelation of the season in European basketball, led Turk Telekom to the finals of the Eurocup, which is why he also received the award of the best coach in the second-strongest European club competition.
He was Obradović’s assistant on the Fenerbahçe bench for a long time, and the Turkish team won one Euroleague title during Obradović’s tenure.
By the way, Turk Telekom is the first-placed team in the Turkish championship with 24 victories in 29 rounds.
Let’s remind, after two consecutive titles of European champions this season, Efes finished the competition in the regular part, so the changes were expected.
Maybe Dzhan is the coach who could return the Euroleague title to Efes.
