The EuroLeague Playoffs continued with high excitement.

To begin the night, Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens failed to wrestle back its homecourt advantage against Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv. In what has been quite a controversial series so far, Maccabi showed greater resilience in the game and used the support of fans in Belgrade to prevent a comeback from PAO.

Then on, a crazy battle developed between Olympiacos Piraeus and FC Barcelona. The Spanish team reclaimed the homecourt advantage after the first overtime period, which ended with a foul call that gave Jabari Parker three free throws that effectively put Barcelona ahead and sealed the game with only 0.5 seconds remaining.
