The Adidas Next Generation Tournament comes to a close this weekend in Kaunas, along with the Euroleague Final Four. Qualifier winners Real Madrid and Barcelona share Group A with Crvena Zvezda and Panathinaikos, while Joventut Badalona and Mega, winners of the other two qualifiers, will be playing in Group B along Next Generation Select Team and Zalgiris. We bring you the players to keep an eye on during the tournament, with a collection of some of the best talented young players in Europe.

The Adidas Next Generation Tournament is back in Munich. From January 20th to the 22nd, eight teams will battle for a place in the Finals. At the Audi Dome, teams from five different countries, plus the Next Generation Team, constituted by players from the nearby regions. 3 days full of exciting games, where scouts, coaches and fans will have the chance to watch the best prospects in European basketball. A tournament to follow through Eurohoops (both the website and social media).

One of the biggest dates in the European scouting calendar at the U16 level, the yearly Villa de Íscar tournament returns for its XXV edition and it comes with a bang. Rather than its customary 4 teams, Íscar is backpedalling to its older format with 6 participating sides: Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain Red, Spain White and a regional select team of Castilla y León U16 players. The two Spain teams will presumably feature a mix of their 2007 and 2008 generations, both of which are holding a MiniCamp since this Monday all the way through to the end of the tournament.
