Bogdanovic's Magical Euroleague Run Ends in Title Game

In what could be his final stint of Euroleague play, former Suns draft pick Bogdan Bogdanovic and his Fenerbahce Ulker club made a flamboyant run before coming up short in the championship game.

Bogdanovic, whom Phoenix selected 27th overall in 2014, has become an overseas sensation while playing for Ulker. The two-time Euroleague Rising Star award-winner was sensational in the tournament, averaging 16.7 points per game in a three-game series against Real Madrid before dropping 18 points on Laboral Kutxa in the Final Four. Nine of those points came in overtime, including a go-ahead three-pointer from straightaway.

Fenerbahce Ulker then met perennial powerhouse CSKA Moscow in the championship game.
