After the traditional week-long EuroLeague break due to domestic cups' action, the top-club competition returned with Round 25 battles on Thursday night.

After suffering a rare home defeat last time out against Zvezda, Maccabi climbed back into the playoffs picture by overcoming Bayern in the Round 25 tip-off.

Two teams with hopes of making a late charge toward the top half of the standings went head to head as Milan hosted Panathinaikos. The Italian team defended its fortress.

Second-place Real got a fourth straight victory – and a sixth consecutive win at home – with a visit from playoffs-chasing Zalgiris.

A special game rounded up Thursday's action. Zeljko Obradovic welcomed his former club Fenerbahce and former assistant Dimitris Itoudis but could not achieve a home victory.

All EuroLeague matches are broadcasted onEuroLeague TV.
