EUROLEAGUE ALL-DECADE CANDIDATE: Erazem Lorbek

The ultimate inside-outside threat, Erazem Lorbek produced for six different Euroleague teams in three different countries during the decade, helping two of them reach the Euroleague title game. Lorbek turned heads from his rooking season, 2003-04, when he made his first start in a Euroleague game at the Final Four in Tel Aviv, helping Fortitudo reach the title game. He captured a full-time starting role the next year and produced strong enough numbers to earn himself the 2004-05 Euroleague Rising Star Award. Lorbek improved from year to year notching his first double-digit scoring season in 2007-08 for Roma. The next season was arguably his best, as Lorbek became a go-to player for CSKA, helping his newest team go all the way to the title game. Now, Lorbek hopes to close the decade with another first, a Euroleague title, with Barcelona.
