Andrea Trinchieri has coached some incredible players over more than two decades, including some Turkish Airlines EuroLeague stars. The Italian play-caller was Kyle Hines's first coach in Europe as they joined forces at Veroli Basket in the 2008-09 season. Hines went on to win four EuroLeague titles. On the other hand, Trinchieri coached Gianluca Basile right at the end of his career with Pallacanstro Cantu. It was Trinchieri's first EuroLeague season and Basile made sure the Italian team reached the 2011-12 Top 16 with an iconic game-winning shot.
Nikos Zisis, Nicolo Melli and Vladimir Lucic complete Trinchieri's list. He coached Zisis in UNICS Kazan, when they reached the 2014 EuroCup Finals, and Brose Bamberg. Both Melli and Lucic became All-EuroLeague players under Trinchieri's guidance, with Bamberg and FC Bayern Munich, respectively. Always direct and on-point, Trinchieri shares some insights and explains to Euroleague.net's Javier Gancedo why these players meant so much to him in his career.
