"We got one, we got two. Back to Turkey, that's what we do. Back-to-back, you know what I'm saying?" Anadolu Efes Istanbul guard Shane Larkin gleefully remarked after his team became Turkish Airlines EuroLeague champion for the second year in a row.

Back in the 2017-18 season, however, the idea of Efes becoming back-to-back champs would have seemed like a fairytale. Current head coach Ergin Ataman arrived midway during that campaign, and since then the charismatic tactician has been able to take the team to unseen heights, with Efes never having won a European title prior to 2021. Now, the Turkish team is the back-to-back EuroLeague champion.

In "Back 2 Back", the latest work from the Euroleague Basketball Originals documentary team, you are able to join reigning champion Efes on its journey to the 2022 EuroLeague Final Four in Belgrade, Serbia. You are given an inside look at just how Efes secured its second straight European title, with insights from star players such as Larkin and Vasilije Micic, as well Coach Ataman and other key contributors to a historic accomplishment.
