Kostas Sloukas added another achievement in what is quickly becoming a legendary career when he was chosen as the 2024 Final Four MVP. Sloukas led Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens to an 80-95 come-from-behind victory over previous champion Real Madrid in the championship game at Uber Arena in Berlin on Sunday night.
Sloukas did not miss from the field in setting a Final Four career-high with 24 points. He was 4 for 4 from behind the arc and made 8 of 9 free throws. Sloukas added 2 rebounds and 3 assists in racking up a PIR of 31, which was the highest of any player in any Final Four game this season.
This marks the fourth EuroLeague crown for Sloukas. He is only the second player to ever do so with three different teams. He previously lifted the trophy with Olympiacos Piraeus (2012, 2013) and Fenerbahce Istanbul (2017). Sarunas Jasikevicius is the only other player to win the EuroLeague with three different teams: FC Barcelona (2003), Maccabi Tel Aviv (2004, 2005) and Panathinaikos (2009). Sloukas is the 17th player ever to win at least four EuroLeague titles.
With his monster game on Sunday, Sloukas moved into fourth place on the all-time Final Four scoring charts with 191 points and into second place in PIR with 203.
