Pamesa Valencia
The original ULEB Cup champion, Pamesa Valencia, heads into the 2008-09 Eurocup with an excellent roster made up of many of the players that reached the competition’s Final Eight last year plus a handful of former Euroleague studs looking to conquer the new Eurocup. The rise of basketball in Valencia hit one of its first peaks in 2003 when Pamesa won the inaugural ULEB Cup. Now head coach Fotios Katsikaris will aim to add another piece to the club’s trophy case with arguably one of Pamesa’s best rosters ever.
