Sergey Grankin

Setter, Russia. Grankin set the Russian team that won Olympic gold in London in 2012, coming back from two sets and two match points down against Brazil in the final. When coach Vladimir Alekno moved the 2.18-metre Dmitriy Muserskiy from middle blocker to opposite, it was Grankin's high, accurate sets that turned the change into points, and he was a fixture of Russia's strong teams for a decade.
