## Notes

* Coach Bogdan Tanjević made it to 5 Korać Cup finals with four different clubs, and lost all of them. In 1978 his Bosna team lost to Partizan 110–117 in overtime. Then in 1986 he made it to the very end again with Mobilgirgi Caserta, only to lose to Banco di Roma Virtus in a two legged final. Finally, in the '90s, Tanjević made 3 more finals, this time consecutively: with Stefanel Trieste in 1994 (lost to PAOK), and with Stefanel Milano in 1995 and 1996 (lost to Alba Berlin and Efes Pilsen, respectively).
