The first part of this EuroLeague double week came to an end with four games tonight.

Firstly, Zalgiris Kaunas hosted Anadolu Efes Istanbul for a crucial game for the play-in positions. Efes was promptly defeated by a sound offensive performance from Zalgiris, and the Turkish team failed to show any defensive presence throughout four quarters of play.

The night continued as AS Monaco broke the unlucky streak they faced against Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade. After three losses in a row to Partizan since the 2022-23 season, Monaco made use of a strong fourth quarter and a fantastic Mike James performance to seal the deal.

The third game of the night saw Ergin Ataman of Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens host Ettore Messina of EA7 Emporio Armani Milan. The two gentlemen go way back, and the Greek team held Milano down effectively, receiving its 10th win in the OAKA this season.

Finally, the night wrapped up with a vengeful FC Barcelona facing off against Virtus Segafredo Bologna. Barcelona had lost the first game in the first half of the season and corrected the record by keeping Virtus below 60 points and outscoring them by 27 points.
