Former All-EuroCup and All-Basketball Champions League guard Dylan Ennis joins Antonis Stroggylakis and Cesare Milanti at the EurohooPOD. The Murcia guard opens up about his career and explains why he finds it a blessing to play in different countries.

He also discusses how the Basketball Champions League has evolved over the years, the stars he enjoys watching (and getting some inspiration from) in the EuroLeague, the BCL players who belong at a higher level, and gives his opinion on coaches publicly criticizing their guys.

In the aftermath of Murcia’s win over Barcelona, Ennis also touched on the statement performances his team is putting on in the ACB, the goals of the club in the Basketball Champions League/Spain, and the Copa Del Rey ambition.

Ennis also gives some love to fellow Canadian ballers Naz Mitrou-Long and Kevin Pangos and mentions why he expects bigger things from them in the near future.
