  • 5 years ago
The return of one of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague's greatest coaches, David Blatt, to his adopted country of Israel forms the emotional backbone of the fifth episode of The Journey, a behind-the-scenes broadcast series tracking five teams in the competition from the opening tip until this season's champion is crowned.

Also in Episode 5:

· Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul guard Ali Muhammed talks about his sense of belonging in Turkey and coach Zeljko Obradovic about playing against his former team, Panathinaikos OPAP Athens.

· The Journey takes a look at the youth instruction system of Real Madrid through the eyes of young Santi Yusta, who came through when the club needed him most last year and helped conquer the EuroLeague title.

· FC Bayern Munich rises into the thick of the playoffs race even without the services of injured center Devin Booker, who was a special spectator as his team downed league leaders Fenerbahce.
