About AX Armani Exchange Milan:

Founded in 1936, the club began its adventure by adding four consecutive local championships to its museum. Becoming an international power with the arrival of Bill Bradley nearly 30 years later, Milan won the EuroLeague championship in front of its fans in 1966. The Italian representative, who won three Saporta Cup championships under the leadership of Art Kenney, Renzo Bariviera, Giorgio Giomo and coach Cesare Rubini between 1971-1976, this time in the Koraç Cup in 1985 with the contributions of Mike D’Antoni, Dino Meneghin and Joe Barry Carroll. reached the happy ending. Continuing on his way with strong squads in the following period, the Milan representative achieved the Korac Cup victory in 1993, this time under the leadership of Aleksandar Djordjevic, Antonello Riva and Riccardo Pittis.

The process that can be called the “golden period” for Milan dates back to the victories of the Koraç Cup. In 1987 and 1988, with stars such as Meneghin, Bob McAdoo and D’Antoni, the team defeated Maccabi in both finals to win the EuroLeague championship, reaching its third EuroLeague victory overall. While the trio of Nando Gentile, Dejan Bodiroga and Gregor Fucka brought the Italian League and Italian Cup victories to the Milan team in 1996, a quiet period was entered in Milan’s history from this date on.

With the sponsorship of Giorgio Armani, Milan basketball got back on its feet in the mid-2000s, reaching the finals of the Italian League in 2005 and was buying EuroLeague tickets again. Milan, which saw the Top 16 in the EuroLeague in 2008-09, achieved this feat by winning five of the last six games of the regular season. Milan managed to play in the final of the Italian League again in the same season.

Armani Milano made the Top 16 of the EuroLeague in the 2011-12 season and showed real success by making the Playoffs in the 2013-14 season. Milan, who entered the Playoff round with the field advantage under the leadership of Keith Langford, could not avoid being eliminated by Maccabi, who finished the season as champion, by 1-3. Focusing on the Italian League in the continuation of the same season, Milan passed Montepaschi Siena and won its first local championship after 1996.

Milan won the Italian League in 2016 and 2018, and the Italian Cup in 2016 and 2017.

Having made a strong entry in the EuroLeague in the 2018-19 season, Milan won six of the first eight games in the EuroLeague, in the team setup that featured Arturas Gudaitis and Mike James. Losing Gudaitis in the rest of the season and suffering injury problems in Nedovic, Milano lost 14 wins especially in the last four regular season fights, despite the addition of James Nunnally to the squad, and missed the Playoff ticket despite reaching the highest number of wins in the current format. In Milan, Mike James became the top scorer in the EuroLeague for his performance and was selected for the second best five. The 2018-19 season for Milan did not end well in local competitions either. Milan lost to Virtus Bologna in the quarter-finals of the Italian Cup, and was swept away by Dinamo Sassari in the semi-finals of the Italian League. Milan were in fourth place in the Italian League in the abandoned 2019-20 season (14 wins, 7 losses) and 12th in the EuroLeague with 12 wins.

After a long break, our opponent made the EuroLeague Final Four again in the 2020-21 season and took the third place. In the Italian League, Milan was eliminated 4-0 by Virtus Bologna, coached by our former coach Sasha Djordjevic, in the final series. Milan also triumphed in the Italian Cup in 2021.

While Milan won the Italian League and Italian Cup in the 2021-22 season, they were eliminated by Anadolu Efes in the EuroLeague Playoff round.
