Hamburg Towers is the only newcomer to the 7DAYS EuroCup for the 2021-22 campaign. This is another step forward for a young club that was still competing in the German second division in 2019. Hamburg comes off its best season, which led to the German powerhouse's spot in the EuroCup and it will aim to make the most of this opportunity.

The club was founded in February 2013 when former EuroCup star Pascal Roller and entrepreneur Wolfgang Sahm announced a plan to bring back professional basketball to Hamburg for the first time in over a decade. Hamburg started in the German second division, playing its first game against Giessen 46ers on September 29, 2014. It finished eighth that season with a 15-15 record and reached the playoffs, but lost against s.Oliver Baskets Wuerzburg in the quarterfinals.

Hamburg remained in the German second division for the next four seasons and developed a strong youth structure. Everything clicked in 2018-19. With former player Marvin Willoughby as the team's sports director, Hamburg put together a competitive roster led by Beau Beech and Jannik Freese. It ranked fourth at the end of the regular season with a 19-11 record and defeated Rostock Seawolves, Niners Chemnitz and Nuernberg Falcons to win the German second division title and promotion to the country's elite. Hamburg had a rough German League debut, ranking last with a 3-17 record. However, the German League expanded to 18 teams for the 2020-21 season, and that allowed Hamburg to keep its place in the top flight.

Last season the club brought in Pedro Calles, one of the best young coaches in Europe, and found the right chemistry with Maik-Kalev Kotsar, Kameron Taylor, T.J. Shorts and Jordan Swing. It all seemed to click as Hamburg beat ALBA Berlin and Brose Baskets twice, split victories with FC Bayern Munich and qualified to the playoffs after finishing the regular season ranked seventh overall with a 21-13 record. ALBA stood in its way to success, sweeping Hamburg in the best-of-five quarterfinals. Hamburg now makes its debut in European competition, taking its ambitious project to a new level. Expect Hamburg to continue growing, as it has taken the right steps to do so.


Hamburg Towers is the only newcomer to the 7DAYS EuroCup for the 2021-22 campaign.

Joventut Badalona comes off a season in which it reached the EuroCup playoffs with a mix of experienced veterans and up-and-coming talent. The club will stick with the same recipe in the 2021-22 campaign, which could have Joventut playing a significant role when the most decisive games of the season arrive.

Founded in 1930, Joventut quickly built a reputation based on its faith in homegrown players. The long list of Joventut players brought up through its youth system features decades' worth of stars such as Jordi Villacampa, the Margall brothers, the Jofresa brothers, Nino Buscato, Rudy Fernandez and Ricky Rubio. To its mine of local talent, Joventut integrated talented outsiders, among whom the names Moka Slavnic, Joe Galvin and Corny Thompson stand out.

Joventut emerged as a national power by winning four Spanish Copas del Rey between 1948 and 1958 and its first league title in 1967. A first European trophy came in 1981 when it lifted the Korac Cup. Joventut added a second Korac Cup in 1990. Soon after moving to Palau Olimpic, its current home court, Joventut won consecutive Spanish League titles in 1991 and 1992, the year in which the team lost the EuroLeague final against Partizan in dramatic fashion. However, Joventut only waited two more years to lift the crown. Villacampa and Thompson hit crucial three-pointers to beat Olympiacos in Tel Aviv and win the EuroLeague.

After winning the Copa del Rey in 1997, a downturn followed. Joventut started to shine again in the newborn EuroCup and reached the semifinals in 2003. Joventut had its breakout season in 2006, as it advanced to the Spanish League semifinals and won a new European trophy, the FIBA EuroCup. The following season, Joventut returned to the Spanish League semifinals and made the EuroLeague Top 16. In 2008, Joventut added the ULEB Cup to its roll of honors. Joventut also won the Copa del Rey and reached the Spanish League semifinals to round out one of the best seasons in club history.

Joventut reached the EuroCup Last 16 in 2010, but lost its competitiveness shortly thereafter. It bounced back in 2018-19, reaching the Copa del Rey semifinals and the Spanish League playoffs behind Spanish League MVP Nico Laprovittola. Last season, Ante Tomic, Neno Dimitrijevic and Xabi Lopez-Arostegui took Joventut to the EuroCup Quarterfinals, where it was stopped by Virtus Segafredo Bologna. Some of the team's most experienced players are homegrown, which means Joventut's commitment to excellence is unquestioned as it looks to climb even higher this season.

Gagic has now played 36 games total over parts of four EuroCup seasons, averaging 8.4 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists in that time. He also played two seasons with Partizan in the EuroLeague, averaging 4.0 points and 3.4 rebounds between 2012 and 2014.

Gagic has also played for Crvena Zvezda Belgrade and Hemofarm Stada Vrsac in Serbia; Mornar Bar in Montenegro; Tenerife in Spain; Tsmoki Minsk in Belarus; Royal Hali Gaziantep, Yesilgiresun Belediye and Istanbul BB in Turkey; Aris Thessaloniki in Greece and Igokea in Bosnia and Herzegovina. He is a two-time Serbian League champion, won the Serbian Cup twice and the Adriatic League in 2013. Gagic has also been a member of the Serbian national team, with which he won a bronze medal at the 2013 World University Games.
