Team Barcelona, led by the influencers Tresco and Ari Geli, won the EuroLeague's Hoop District Tournament in Berlin, Germany, on Thursday.

Hoop District Finals: Team Barcelona is the first-ever champion!

After a thrilling evening of basketball and entertainment, the 2024 Hoop District champion has been crowned as Team Barcelona beat Team Berlin 22-7 in the final. Led by team captain [Tresco](https://www.instagram.com/tresco_ball) and co-star [Ari Geli](https://www.instagram.com/arigelii/), Team Barcelona lost 18-20 to [C-Bas](https://www.instagram.com/cbas/)’s Team Berlin earlier in the evening but were able to exact some revenge once the €10,000 cash prize was on the line.

Team Berlin was the favorite heading into the final after being the only team to go a perfect 3-0, but Tresco’s Team Barcelona squad caught fire at just the right time to emerge as the champion. In particular, Tresco hit back-to-back three-pointers in the final minutes and then struck once more to guarantee the victory.

Hoops District/Off-Court gave the Final Four a new twist

As soon as the final buzzer sounded, Tresco and Ari Geli immediately sought each other before coming together as a group to celebrate. Speaking immediately afterward, Tresco told [EuroLeague.net](http://EuroLeague.net): “It’s unreal. First of all, I want to say thanks to the EuroLeague for organizing this. I know it’s a huge effort from them and I think us as creators have to support this, take the best out of it, create content around \[it\] because this has to stay for a long time.”

In fact, Tresco is already thinking about how Team Barcelona can defend their crown next year.

“I think this is huge, it’s the start of something new,” he added. “Next year we will be back and we’ll go for the second crown. Congrats to all the teams, it was so fun – in Paris and here in Berlin.”

As fans take a chance to breathe before the 2024 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Championship Game and also at halftime, they will be treated to an innovative set of performances that will take their collective breath away.

The championship game has become synonymous with pursuing innovation and that will be the case once again, as the visual language and technology used will create a new norm for the incredible level of these shows, which have once again been created and produced by the multiple award-winning [Filmmaster](https://www.instagram.com/filmmaster.official?igsh=N2tuajdqdjA0dnBl&utm_source=qr). The “Ritual of Glory” will offer an exciting dialogue between the audience gathered inside Berlin’s Uber Arena, with the extraordinary show cast of dancers, music performers and acrobats creating a symbolic celebration that puts basketball at the center.

Those inside the arena will see the iconic ring, called “The Hoop”, travel down vertically from above the Media Cube and almost touch the court floor and tilting, allowing the moving light fixtures to cast amazing patterns that transform the court into a “Home of Glory” for players and fans alike.

What’s more, there are two large motorized vertical screens next to the gigantic hoop that will act as portals, which will showcase content and bring multiple volumetric configurations to the scene. It will culminate with the screens lifting up at the end of the show to welcome the players on court in truly spectacular fashion.

Down on the floor, prepare to be amazed as the international freestyle movement pioneers DaMove and the Berlin-based Lunatix dance company pay tribute to the ultimate challenge that is set to take place between the two finalist teams on the court. This top-notch entertainment, which is in line with the urban innovative spirit of the event, will leave fans with their jaws on the floor.

To close the pre-game festivities, there will be a performance that sees everyone come together before the trophy is revealed and brought down to the court.

Then, during the halftime show, Italian music group [Mr. BAGS](https://www.instagram.com/serena_bagozzi/) will keep everyone inside Berlin’s Uber Arena entertained with an unmissable set of cover songs.

Entertainment value has been a guarantee in the Final Four show over the years. That will be the case once again as the action takes a brief pause to allow the fans to keep the atmosphere going, with Mr. BAGS ready to amaze supporters with their performance.

U18 Real Madrid has been the leading force of the Euroleague Basketball Adidas Next Generation Tournament for nearly the last decade, but the Spanish powerhouse will face stiff competition at the 2024 ANGT Finals with a loaded field looking to dethrone the reigning champion. 

Will Real Madrid‘s reign continue at loaded ANGT Finals?

U18 Real Madrid has been the leading force of the Euroleague Basketball Adidas Next Generation Tournament for nearly the last decade, but the Spanish powerhouse will face stiff competition at the 2024 ANGT Finals with a loaded field looking to dethrone the reigning champion. Real is one of four clubs to compete this week in Berlin that has hoisted the trophy at Europe‘s premier youth club competition - the others being U18 FC Barcelona, U18 PFBB INSEP Paris and U18 Mega MIS Belgrade. The remaining four teams competing in group play from May 23-25 at Uber Eats Music Hall are host U18 ALBA Berlin, U18 EA7 Emporio Armani Milan, ANGT Finals debutant U18 ratiopharm Ulm and a select team from the United States-based Overtime Elite program - the first time a US team is competing in the ANGT Finals.

The eight teams are broken down into two groups of four with the teams in each group facing each other in a round-robin format. The two group winners will square off in the ANGT Championship Game on Sunday at 12:30 CET to crown the 2023-24 continental champion.

Group A consists of Real, Mega, Milan and Ulm while Group B features Barcelona, PFBB, ALBA and OTE.

Real has claimed the title a record four times - in 2015, 2019, 2021 and 2023. The Spanish side also reached the final in 2014. Real has played in the ANGT Finals in each of the last nine seasons and booked its spot in Berlin by winning the ANGT Podgorica qualifying tournament. Mega has been the closest team to Real in recent years in terms of results - winning the crown in 2022 and reaching the championship game in 2017 and 2019. Mega received a wild card for Berlin after it took fifth place at ANGT Belgrade. 

Milan finished second at ANGT Belgrade, losing to Barcelona in the first-place game. The Italian side‘s only previous ANGT Finals showing came as EuroLeague Final Four host in 2014. Ulm will be making its first ANGT Finals appearance after it won the ANGT Dubai, becoming the first German club to win a qualifying tournament.

In Group B, Barcelona will be playing in the ANGT Finals for the 11th time. The Catalan side won its lone championship in 2016 and has lost in the final game three times: 2008, 2013 and 2021. Barcelona, which beat Real Madrid in the final of the Spanish U18 domestic championship earlier this month, made it to Berlin by winning the ANGT Belgrade. PFBB is one of six teams to win two or more ANGT crowns along with Real (4 times), U18 CSKA Moscow (3), U18 FMP Belgrade (2), U18 Rytas Vilnius (2) and U18 Zalgiris Kaunas (2). PFBB took the crown in 2010 and 2017. The famed French institution lost to U18 Next Generation Team France in the ANGT Paris first-place game but was given a wild card for Berlin. 

This will be the third time ALBA is playing in the ANGT Finals with the other instances coming when the German capital hosted the EuroLeague Final Four in 2009 and 2016. ALBA slumped to sixth place at the ANGT Podgorica but received a wild card for the season-ending event. The final team in Group B also received a wild card and will be making its much-anticipated ANGT debut. Overtime Elite will send a select team to Berlin, representing some of the best young talent in the eight-team U20 league based in Atlanta, Georgi
