Big Names, Big Vibes: EuroLeague Stars Shine at the Panini America Booth in the EuroLeague Fan Zone in Abu Dhabi!

This year’s EuroLeague Basketball FanZone in Abu Dhabi was more than just a celebration of the Final Four—it was a full-blown tribute to the game, the fans, and the fast-growing world of trading cards. And at the heart of it all? The Panini America booth, where the energy was electric and the vibes were unforgettable.

From the moment doors opened, EuroLeague stars—past and present—pulled up to the booth, cracked open packs, and dove headfirst into the hobby. The reactions? Pure gold.

🏀 Players like Juancho Hernangomez, Nikola Milutinov, Bonzie Colson and Daniel Theis lit up as they spotted their own cards, shared stories from the hardwood, and hunted down teammates, rivals, and basketball legends from EuroLeague history. Whether it was laughs over throwback looks or pride in seeing their legacy captured on cardboard, it was all smiles and signature moments.

🔥 Fans were right there with them—cheering, trading, snapping photos, and soaking up a rare chance to connect with their heroes in such a personal and interactive way.

This wasn’t just about cards. It was about memories, connections, and community.

The Panini America booth brought the hobby to life, showing exactly what makes collecting so special: bridging the gap between generations of players and fans, and turning every pack into a shared experience.

Big names. Big vibes. That’s what the hobby’s all about. 💯
