EuroLeague returned with four games to round up Round 26 of the Regular season.

The Friday night started with one-way traffic at Fenerbahce. Nemanja Bjelica, who played his first game of the season after a calf injury, scored his first two points, while Fenerbahce became just the third team this century to make at least 20 triples in a single game.

The hosts finished the game 20-for-40 from deep and set a new club record for three-pointers made (the previous was 17). Dyshawn Pierre paced the winners with 20 points on 5-for-7 three-point shooting, while Johnathan Motley and Marko Guduric had 16 points apiece. Scottie Wilbekin netted 15 on 5-for-7 three-point shooting.

Next, blazing-hot Real Madrid extended their victorious EuroLeague stretch to five games, beating ASVEL on the road. Despite winning the game, Real lost Walter Tavares due to an ankle injury.

Round 26 was capped off by two games, where Baskonia welcomed Valencia in a Spanish derby, while Milan hosted league-leading Olympiacos. The hosting teams crushed their opponents on both occasions, while Baskonia scored 114 points and won the game by a 39-point margin.
