Jordan Walker Sets New Scoring Record in BCL, Threatening Nick Galis’ Legend

In a thrilling match that saw Patras Prometheus triumph over Virzburg with a final score of 119-115 in double overtime, Jordan Walker etched his name into the history books of European basketball. The American guard scored an astonishing 54 points in 43 minutes, shooting 3/6 from two-point range, 9/13 from three-point range, and a near-perfect 21/22 from the free-throw line. This performance not only set a new all-time scoring record in the Basketball Champions League (BCL) but also came close to challenging the legendary Nick Galis’s record of 56 points in a European away game against Hungary’s Vasas in 1980—a mark untouched for 45 years. Despite falling short of surpassing Galis, Walker has undoubtedly made his mark on European basketball history. However, despite Walker’s heroics, Patras Prometheus will not advance further in the competition.
