The Real Madrid legend scored 15 points in the semis and has now collected a total of 182 points in the EuroLeague Final Fours. That's the second-best mark in the league's history, only behind the legendary J.R. Holden, who has 194 points in his tally.

Furthermore, Llull also has a chance to become the all-time Final Four assist leader in the match against Anadolu Efes Istanbul.

The 34-year-old guard dished out 3 assists in the semifinal, which increased his tally to a total of 56. He now sits in second place on the all-time list together with Sergio Rodriguez, who also has 56 assists in his Final Four career. The first place belongs to the EuroLeague legend Theodoros Papaloukas, who has collected 59 assists.

That's the eight Final Four for Llull in his career. Playing for Real, the Spanish guard has won the EuroLeague trophy twice. He needs 13 points and 4 assists to be the leader in both categories.

The bookmakers have Llull's points and assists lines just along with the record mark, with the points over/under sitting at 10.5 and assists line at 3.5.

The EuroLeague final is scheduled to take place today, May 21st, in Belgrade's Stark Arena at 19:00 CET.
