Udoh sees Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, Panathinaikos, and Monaco in the Final Four this year, with Fenerbahce being the dark horse the can surprise.
Ekpe Udoh made his name in Europe as one of the leaders of the Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul's championship-winning team in 2017. He doesn't see the team going to the Final Four this year.
Asked to predict which four EuroLeague teams will be headed to the Final Four in Berlin in May, Udoh chose four other teams.
"[Real] Madrid, Barcelona, I'll say Pana[thinaikos], and Monaco. Fener[bahce] is the dark horse," Udoh declared.
Coming from the NBA, Udoh played two seasons for Fenerbahce from 2015 until 2017, averaging 12.3 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 2.2 blocks per game for 18.5 PIR. He was named the Final Four MVP in 2017.
Udoh later returned to Europe to sign with Virtus Segafredo Bologna in 2021 but suffered a season-ending injury in September and didn't manage to play a single game in the EuroCup that season despite the team winning the competition.
