This is the fourth Coach of the Year trophy presented for the success in the League’s regular season. Rimas Kurtinaitis from Khimki was its first recipient, Itoudis got the award in 2015, Vasily Karasev from Zenit was awarded last year.

Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
I would like to thank the league for recognition, for this award. The award looks like individual one with my name mentioned but actually it has a lot of names and surnames on it. It goes to the management, Andrey [Vatutin], Natalia [Furaeva] and Andrey [Shchepankov] who work with us, who brought me over here, to all my assistants – Andreas, Darryl, Anton, Kostas, Denis, Evgeny, of course, last but not least it goes to the players, it is impossible without them. I would like to thank everyone mentioned for their contribution. Finally I would like to thank our fans for their help. I am positive to see them in bigger and bigger numbers.
