With their 8th away win of the season against AS Monaco, Zeljko Obradovic's team has clinched a EuroLeague playoff berth.

After the 88-84 road win, even though both Zalgiris Kaunas and Cazoo Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz can reach the same amount of wins after the regular season, the Serbian team holds the head-to-head tie-breaker against both organizations.

It will be the first Partizan's playoff appearance since the 2009-10 season when the Serbian powerhouse reached the Final Four, finishing in 4th place.

This year, the club's fans set the new EuroLeague attendance record several times. After five tremendous outings this season, every single attendance number in the all-time EuroLeague Top 10 belongs to Partizan.

After securing a spot in the playoffs, Partizan will aim for a higher seed. Zeljko Obradovic's squad could possibly go as far as 5th place, depending on the result of the Round 34 matchup against Panathinaikos Athens.
