Club info

Herbalife Gran Canaria Las Palmas comes off another solid season in which the club lifted its first-ever official trophy: the 2016 Spanish SuperCup. Gran Canaria also reached the Copa del Rey tournament, where it lost to Valencia Basket in the quarterfinals, and made it to the Spanish League playoffs. Gran Canaria had a terrific 7DAYS EuroCup Regular Season, in which it won seven of its eight games and was the top scoring team in the competition (94.8 ppg.). A 0-2 start did not stop Gran Canaria in the Top 16, as the team went on to win its next four games to qualify for the playoffs. Gran Canaria suffered a quick quarterfinals exit by losing twice to Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem. Kyle Kuric was chosen to the All-EuroCup Second Team a year after recovering from brain tumor surgery in one of the most remarkable comeback stories in European basketball history. Gran Canaria went into the Spanish playoffs with optimism and had a chance to win the best-of-three quarterfinal playoffs series against Baskonia Vitoria Gasteiz at the buzzer, but Kuric's shot did not go in.

History

Herbalife Gran Canaria Las Palmas enters its 12th EuroCup season with its lone goal being to compete at as high a level as in the recent past. Founded in 1963, Gran Canaria reached the Spanish first division in 1985, but did not gain a foothold for good until 1995-96. The club played its first Spanish League playoffs game in 2000 and played in the Korac Cup in 2001. Gran Canaria made its ULEB Cup debut in 2003-04 and went through to the eighthfinals before losing to Real Madrid. The club did not return to the ULEB Cup elimination series until 2007, when it lost in the eighthfinals against FMP. Gran Canaria enjoyed a great EuroCup season in 2009-10, but a home loss against Panellinios in a do-or-die game prevented the team from reaching the EuroCup Finals. Great results finally arrived in the 2012-13 season, when Gran Canaria reached the Spanish Copa del Rey and the Spanish League semifinals for the first time in club history. Another step forwards took place in 2013-14, when it moved to the magnificent, 11,500-seat Gran Canaria Arena and finished the Spanish League regular season with a club-record 22 wins. That set the basis for a 2014-15 EuroCup season to remember, in which EuroCup Coach of the Year Aito Garcia Reneses and All-EuroCup center Walter Tavares led Gran Canaria all the way to the EuroCup Finals. The team won 21 of its first 22 games and swept Cedevita Zagreb, Pinar Karsiyaka Izmir and Unics Kazan in the elimination rounds, however Khimki Moscow Region stood in its way to the title in the finals. Gran Canaria also returned to the Spanish League playoffs and hosted the Copa del Rey final eight. The team managed to make it to another final, reaching the 2016 Copa del Rey title game against Real Madrid, which ultimately prevailed. Gran Canaria used a strong season to get back to the EuroCup semifinals, but lost by a 1-point difference to eventual champion Galatasaray Odeabank Istanbul. Gran Canaria returned to the Spanish League playoffs in the last two seasons, where twice it lost to Baskonia Vitoria Gasteiz in a do-or-die Game 3. Gran Canaria lifted the Spanish SuperCup trophy, its first title, and went back to the EuroCup playoffs in 2017, but Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem stood in its way. Now Gran Canaria aims to stay competitive in the 2017-18 7DAYS EuroCup.
