The EuroLeague comes back for the second day of the second round with four matches on the slate.

Two games start off the evening, with AS Monaco welcoming Virtus Segafredo Bologna in their first home game in the tournament. The Roca Team came off a loss against Valencia Basket with the hopes of overcoming it, but the Italian squad controlled the game throughout and captured an easy victory.

Meanwhile, Zalgiris Kaunas hosted Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade as Rokas Giedraitis came to play in Lithuania for the first time since signing with the Serbian organization. Even though the red-and-whites had an advantage in the fourth quarter, the Lithuanian team made a comeback to earn their second EuroLeague victory in a row.

Later in the evening, the game of the round followed. Despite facing multiple injuries, Olympiacos Piraeus played against FC Barcelona in the Peace and Friendship Stadium. In a tight 40-minute battle, Roger Grimau's men were ultimately better and earned their second straight victory in the competition.

To finish the day off, Valencia Basket sought to earn their second win this season against Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul. In a series of unusual events during the last minute of the game, Tyler Dorsey was ejected, Scottie Wilbekin missed a crucial free throw, and the home squad was victorious once again.
