Per @lostgps,Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv has traveled the most this season, accumulating a distance of 71,056 kilometers and 6 days and 2 hours of traveling time.
Zalgiris Kaunas and Real Madrid are second and third, respectively, with a slim margin between their touring distance.
On the other end, Virtus Segafredo Bologna is the EuroLeague team with the least kilometers made -- 31,543 km (4d 4h). That's more than two times less distance than what Maccabi has accumulated and almost two days less spent on flights and other kinds of trips.
The geographical location plays a big role here, as the other Italian team -- EA7 Emporio Armani Milan -- is sitting next to Virtus. Both Serbian basketball powerhouses are also at the bottom of the table, while all four Spanish teams make the Top 10.
