Tribute to the Champs: Tarik Biberovic

Published 17 hours ago1 minute read

Full of confidence, Biberovic played a strong role in his team's 82-76 semifinal victory over defending champion Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens. His first basket, a fadeaway jumper off the dribble, gave Fenerbahce a 20-12 lead late in the first quarter. He buried a couple of three-pointers to boost his team's lead to 31-18 soon after that. Biberovic had time to sink a jumper and, above all, the game-sealing triple in the final minute, allowing Fenerbahce fans to celebrate a big win.

In the Championship Game against AS Monaco, Biberovic buried a stop-and-pop jumper in the lane late in the first quarter, finishing the game with 3 points. It was not his best night, but when the dust settled Biberovic had plenty of reasons to celebrate. It wasn't just his first EuroLeague title, but it capped a season in which he took his game to the next level, becoming an all-around threat on offense.

Often seen as a three-point specialist, Biberovic showed he could create his own shot and help on the boards. The best is yet to come for Biberovic, who can now call himself a EuroLeague champion.
