Pregame quotes hub: Round 34

## Friday, April 11

### Anadolu Efes Istanbul vs. Zalgiris Kaunas (19:30 CET)

**Luca Banchi, Anadolu Efes Istanbul head coach**

"So another crucial game, as expected in this very frenetic end to the regular season. We expect a team that for all season long proved to have all the potential to compete at a high level. We really respect the individual quality of their players and the organization of their game. That's why we need to be very accurate the way we handle the emotion of such a game typology and how we try to express the best continuity for 40 minutes long because I'm pretty sure that Zalgiris Kaunas will be capable to stress our team for all game long. So I really wish that we will finish this regular season with a great performance as a statement of our growth as a team and to prepare the best way possible our post season."

**Vincent Poirier, Anadolu Efes Istanbul center**

"It will be a big last game at home in the regular season. We need to be concentrated for 40 minutes and play aggressive as we did last week. They have a great transition game and fast players. We have to control the rhythm of the game and dictate our own game. Our goal is to win the game to clinch the playoff spot and finish the regular season in the best way possible at home in front of our fans."

### Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens vs. Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade (20:15 CET)

**Ergin Ataman, Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens head coach**

"We lost the last game on our home court, here against Paris, so before the playoffs start and we have home-court advantage, it is important to keep our home-court aggressiveness, our home-court confidence and to play good basketball to win the game. Crvena Zvezda are a dangerous team, they have dangerous players like \[Nikola\] Kalinic, \[Filip\] Petrusev, \[Yago\] dos Santos, \[Codi\] Miller-McIntyre, Isaiah Canaan is a very good scorer, so we need to have a good defense everywhere and to attack with balance on offense."

**Omer Yurtseven, Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens center**

"We're prepared. We've been working really hard. These last few days have given us the time to rest and also to prepare, so I don't think we're nervous at all. We're ready. We've got to attack them a bit more inside because they're undersized and we've got to be ready for when their bigs pick and pop, and when their guards get aggressive; they've got a few talented guards. We lost our last game at home, we want to get this one."

**Ioannis Sfairopoulos, Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade head coach**

"A very good team that already has home-court advantage for the playoffs. They've only lost three games at home, so our task won’t be easy. They’re a quality team, but we want to play a good game – on both defense and offense. We have to stay consistent for all 40 minutes, stay in the game, and fight until the end. That’s our goal."

**Filip Petrusev, Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade forward**

"We all know what kind of team they are, what the atmosphere is like over there, and that we’re in for a real test. We’ve been playing well on the road this year, so we definitely have a good chance in Athens. I personally know what to expect there. They have a great crowd, they understand basketball, and they know what their team needs. But honestly, we’ve had a strong record on the road this season – it’s like we come together more, knowing we don’t have the support of our own fans. We’re extra focused. I can’t wait to play there."

### FC Barcelona vs. Virtus Segafredo Bologna (20:30 CET)

**Joan Penarroya, FC Barcelona head coach**

"Virtus is a team that is low in the standings, but in the last four games is playing great basketball. They have recovered players and are playing very well. Let's focus on winning tomorrow and we will have more information on how we can finish, but it is impossible to know now. I don't have any certainty. I hope that we finish fourth."

**Tomas Satoransky, FC Barcelona guard**

"Obviously there are 100 options about how things might turn out, but the most important thing is to focus on winning tomorrow's. Winning this game gives us a lot more options, maybe even getting into the playoffs, but losing the game would mean finishing ninth or 10th. Virtus is playing good of late, not only in the EuroLeague but also in the Italian League, and we just have to focus on them for now. Then we'll see what happens after and we'll prepare for any eventuality."

**Dusko Ivanovic, Virtus Segafredo Bologna head coach**

"Tomorrow we will play the last game of this EuroLeague regular season, where we have not done a good job this year, losing the chance to achieve good results. Tomorrow we have the last chance to do well, trying to get a win. We will play against a team that is playing really well, fast and confidently, and we will have a chance to play a game that will be crucial for them."

**Momo Diouf, Virtus Segafredo Bologna center**

"Tomorrow's game, despite the standings, will be a tough one from a physical standpoint but also from a mental standpoint because we want to end the EuroLeague season on a positive note and take advantage of that to then dive into the championship with confidence and energy."

## Thursday, April 10

### LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne vs. AS Monaco (20:00 CET)

**Vassilis Spanoulis, AS Monaco head coach**

"It's such an important game for us. We're up for the challenge. What's the key against ASVEL? Defending well against their creators, having a lot of energy because they run a lot at home, also knowing how to read because they change their defense a lot, you have to be ready to adapt. We need to get a result. The fact that this final round is being played over two days? No, that's not normal. In the future, we'll have to change that."

**Nick Calathes, AS Monaco guard**

"It's a big game for us, and we're aiming for the best possible playoff position. We need to come in with the right mental approach. Defense will be the basis of everything. After Pana, objectively speaking, we need to show a reaction, it's a must-win game. There are always ups and downs in a season, for every team. What we want now is to show our best basketball. ASVEL? A good team, worth more than their place in the standings. They've got very good guards, like \[Nando\] De Colo, and solid big men. We have to be ready, and we will be."

### FC Bayern Munich vs. Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul (20:00 CET)

**Gordie Herbert, FC Bayern Munich head coach**

"We need to come out from the start with everything we've got and embrace the battle. They rebound extremely well, but tomorrow we need to be better. It’ll be like a boxing match – we have to be physical right away."

**Johannes Voigtmann, FC Bayern Munich center**

"They’re a very physical, tall team – that’s their DNA. They’ve been playing at a high level recently and rightfully sit at the top. But we want to protect our strong home record and, ideally, qualify directly for the playoffs with a win. In the first leg, we were missing \[Vladimir\] Lucic and \[Niels\] Giffey, so we were playing very small. This time, we want to bring our strengths to the table – with all the physicality we’ve got."

**Saras Jasikevicius, Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul head coach**

"Bayern is one of the best offensive teams in the EuroLeague this year. Their guard play is unbelievable. They are the number one shooting team in the league. It would be very important to guard the three-point line. Just to understand what we can give up or not because when they play with five players who can shoot the ball, it's very difficult to play defense."

**Devon Hall, Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul guard**

"We've got a good few days to prepare for them. The team has been playing well and obviously got a lot of offensive explosion. So we have been preparing well.  We're thankful for our fans who will be able to come out there. With you, we will hopefully feel like a little bit of a home game so we're thankful for them."

### Olympiacos Piraeus vs. Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv (20:15 CET)

**Georgios Bartzokas, Olympiacos Piraeus head coach**

"Maybe in the old days, the first-place ‘curse’ was something that I thought about. But not now. It is important for us to finish first in this very competitive season, where so many teams fight for a spot not just for the playoffs but for the play-ins. I believe that finishing in first place will be a big reward for all the effort we put in from the beginning of the season. But regardless of what will happen, we have confidence and trust in our team. As far as it concerns the game against Maccabi, they have a good roster and a coach, which I sincerely appreciate. Oded Kattash has a more difficult job than any other coach in the EuroLeague. Now that the regular season is coming to an end, we feel tired from all the traveling. Imagine how tired they are that they have to travel, even for their home games in the EuroLeague. That’s why I feel the need to give credit to Maccabi's coach, who, as I have mentioned before, has excellent ideas about the game. It is remarkable that they fight all the games until the end, and they have had some big wins lately. I am sure that tomorrow will be very competitive, as they were in the previous games."

**Giannoulis Larentzakis, Olympiacos Piraeus guard**

"We want first place. It reflects our effort and the consistency we had during the season. In our minds, there is only the game against Maccabi. Nothing else. They have a good roster, they fight hard in every game, and we must stay focused on our game plan to get the win."

**Oded Kattash, Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv head coach**

"It’s always disappointing not to reach the Play-In or the Playoffs. Under these circumstances – without a home, without our fans, constant travel, changes, and injuries – it's almost unreasonable to expect different results. I don't think any other team would have survived this. I have to give credit to the players, the staff, and the club for surviving this better than could have been expected. And still, assuming we’re not there, we want to focus on the goals that remain."

**Levi Randolph, Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv forward**

"It was a long season – it felt very long – but it also ended abruptly. As a collective, we didn’t achieve the goals we set out for, but I think we showed a promising second half of the season with how we competed and managed to win games. It’s a fitting way to end the season. We started against them and we’re finishing against them. We just want to compete. We showed what kind of team we are and what we’re made of in the second half of the season. We showed fight, character, and continued to improve – which is the main goal. I don’t know what more we could’ve done. Everyone worked hard – the staff worked hard. Despite everything that was against us, I feel like we tried to make the most of what we had – a lot of moving parts in the roster, and it became hard to stay consistent. The main goal was to keep improving – every day, every game, every practice – and I think we did that in the second half of the season. We showed that when we compete, we can win games."

### Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade vs. Real Madrid (20:30 CET)

**Zeljko Obradovic, Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade head coach**

"The last game awaits us in front of our fans, we have an obligation to ourselves and to them to play the most fair and give the maximum. We prepared like for every game so far. Their team managed to stabilize, some players returned from injuries, while others improved their form. They have tremendous quality and lately they have been playing their best games since the beginning of the season. A very demanding game awaits us and we will do our best to play the best we can."

**Isaac Bonga, Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade forward**

"We want to win this game as it’s our last one of the season in the EuroLeague. It means a lot to us to finish it the right way. We need to be mentally prepared, because even after this game, we still have many obligations ahead."

**Chus Mateo, Real Madrid head coach**

"It has been a very tough regular season in which we have had to fight until the end to try to reach the playoffs. We always try to be as high as possible in all the competitions in which we participate, but, in this case and this year, it has been very difficult for us from the beginning because there has been a huge equality and, in fact, until this last round there is. We are ready to play a good game against an opponent like Partizan, which is very strong and solid in Belgrade and very difficult to beat. We will try to play a good game to have a chance of winning because we know that it is not easy to win there."

**Sergio Llull, Real Madrid guard**

"We head into tomorrow's game with a lot of excitement knowing that it is very important and that it is the last of the regular season. We can finish in several positions and we have to fight until the end to see where we are in the standings. We expect a very tough game, as always in Belgrade, at a full court with a dedicated crowd and a Partizan side that will play without pressure as they are eliminated, something that makes them more dangerous. We have to try to play a very solid game during the 40 minutes and try to take it to our ground to have a chance to win. It will be important to match their toughness, as Partizan presses a lot and puts a lot of hands, control the rebounding and, on offense, move the ball well and impose our rhythm."

### EA7 Emporio Armani Milan vs. Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz (20:30 CET)

**Ettore Messina, EA7 Emporio Armani Milan head coach**

"We are closing a very difficult EuroLeague season. Unfortunately, we had the entire roster available for the first game and one more time early in the season, only. We have won some good and important games and we lost some of them, and ultimately the last few losses doomed our chances to clinch a playoff or play-in berth. We are aware of how much we disappointed our fans, our ownership and, more than anybody else, ourselves. The team will keep working hard. Our goal right now is to regain confidence and recover players to get ready for the Italian League playoffs. However, we fully intend to finish the season on a good note before our people in Milan."

### Paris Basketball vs. ALBA Berlin (20:45 CET)

**Pedro Calles, ALBA Berlin head coach**

"In our last EuroLeague game, we want to compete as hard as we can in order to continue growing as a team. Defensively, we need to be more consistent. We've already taken a step in the right direction, but defending Paris is a tough challenge for any team. They create an environment most teams aren't used to, due to the speed at which they play and the sheer number of three-point shots they take. Controlling TJ Shorts alone is difficult, but we need to keep an eye on every player on the court. It's going to be a tough test that will show us where we stand as a team."

**Justin Bean, ALBA Berlin forward**

"We know we're going to finish last in the standings – but that doesn't mean we're going to give up on the final game. It's a matter of pride, and we want to end our EuroLeague season on a positive note. Paris is a great team. For us, Thursday will be all about strong communication on the court. We need to defend as a unit. When TJ Shorts drives to the basket, we have to stop him, but at the same time, we need to be aware of where the shooters are at all times, waiting for the pass."

Pregame quotes hub: 'Our goal is to win the game and clinch the playoff spot'

Real Madrid closed its regular-season campaign with a win at KK Partizan, its sixth in a row in the EuroLeague, and the team seems to have hit top gear entering the postseason.

Rampant Real Madrid has Chus Mateo brimming with confidence 

[Real Madrid](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/real-madrid/mad/) is heading into the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague postseason galvanized by six successive wins which have catapulted the former champs into the play-in picture, with a chance of squeezing directly into the playoffs if one of Friday’s results goes the Spanish giant’s way.

Real needs either traditional rival FC Barcelona or Anadolu Efes Istanbul to lose their respective fixtures in order to sneak into the top six, but even if that doesn’t happen Real will enter the Play-In Showdown with its tail up after a fine run.

Thursday’s [comeback 89-91 win at Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/real-madrid-continues-to-be-partizans-nemesis/) epitomized Real’s die-hard attitude as the 11-time EuroLeague champion put together a 4-15 run in the home straight to erase an 85-76 deficit inside a packed Belgrade Arena.

The result had head coach Chis Mateo purring with delight at the postgame press conference, as the 56-year-old tactician hailed his team’s resilience. Having guided Real to the championship in 2023 after he took over from the iconic Pablo Laso, Mateo is now hoping that *Los Blancos* can defy the odds and add another piece of silverware to their trophy cabinet.

“We did a great job to win our last six games and now we’re ready for the postseason,” he said. “We will fight hard to achieve the goal, which is to win one more title.

“We’re playing much better as a team than we did at the star of the season, as changing half the roster requires time and patience for the team to gel. We’re doing a better job at both ends of the court and we’re reaching the desired level. “

Mateo elaborated that Real were ill-prepared for Partizan’s big men knocking down shots from downtown but praised the way his men were able to deal with adversity and claw their way back into the contest when the chips were down.

“Their big guys \[Aleksej\] Pokusevski and \[Brandon\] Davies scored six threes between them and that created problems for us. We never lost faith and kept fighting all the way, having been able to get back into the game in the closing stages,” Mateo emphasized.

Partizan and its head coach Zeljko Obradovic now face a tough stretch in the regional ABA League in a bid to secure pole position ahead of the playoffs, having lost six of their last seven EuroLeague games. The home straight meltdown derailed Partizan’s postseason challenge and Obradovic acknowledged that defect by Real pretty much summed up the club’s campaign in Europe’s premier club competition.

“We had a great opportunity to win the game but unfortunately we made some bad decisions on offense down the stretch,” said the winner of a record nine EuroLeague titles with five different clubs.

“It’s the story of the season, as we’ve let a fair few wins slip from our grasp in the closing stages, when we were ahead and appeared to be in control. On the other hand, Real has peaked and I see them as one of the top three contenders to win the title.”

The winner of a record 11 EuroLeague titles hit top gear ahead of the competition’s business end

Real Madrid has now won seven straight games against KK Partizan, with Edy Tavares scoring at the buzzer to deliver a crucial victory for Los Blancos in the postseason race.

Real Madrid continues to be Partizan’s nemesis

[Real Madrid](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/real-madrid/mad/) celebrated yet another [memorable win against Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/real-edges-partizan-89-91-moves-closer-to-playoff-berth/) in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague, triumphing 89-91 to pile more misery on coach Zeljko Obradovic’s men in the final round of the regular season.

The two teams could not have ended their regular-season campaigns in more contrasting fashion, as Real ground out a sixth successive win while Partizan suffered a sixth defeat in its last seven games.

It was also Real’s seventh straight win against Partizan, with the run beginning in the 2023 playoffs when there was so much more at stake than on Friday night in the imposing Belgrade Arena.

Down 2-0, Real turned the series on its head with three successive wins to reach the Final Four before eventually winning a record-extending 11th title In Europe’s premier club competition.

The Spanish club went on to complete regular-season sweeps of Partizan this term and last, while the Serbian side missed out on the play-in for the second successive time.

Trailing 85-76 in the home stretch, Real dug deep to force the final twist in the last few minutes as [Facundo Campazzo](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/facundo-campazzo/005928/) and [Walter Tavares](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/walter-tavares/005791/) came up big in crunch time, the latter sinking a game-winning floater at the buzzer.

<center>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="es" dir="ltr">👊 ¡HASTA EL FINAL SIEMPRE! 👊 <a href="https://t.co/YokhxYO2d7">pic.twitter.com/YokhxYO2d7</a></p>&mdash; Real Madrid Basket (@RMBaloncesto) <a href="https://twitter.com/RMBaloncesto/status/1910444860731252924?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 10, 2025</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Campazzo, who racked up 12 points, 7 assists and 3 steals to earn the player of the game accolade, acknowledged that an intimidating atmosphere inside Belgrade Arena had inspired Real to stage an impressive late comeback.   

“It’s a big one for our confidence,” the Argentine playmaker said in his postgame comments. “The environment motivated me as we played with a lot of fire and hustle until the end. We were poor in the third quarter but we made the right decisions in the important moments.”

Tavares added: “I am super happy to help my team and this is a great win for us.”

<center>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="es" dir="ltr">😍 ¡Esa sensación...! 🙌 <a href="https://t.co/ujBlj0KTTA">pic.twitter.com/ujBlj0KTTA</a></p>&mdash; Real Madrid Basket (@RMBaloncesto) <a href="https://twitter.com/RMBaloncesto/status/1910439198827700430?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 10, 2025</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

The outcome pleased coach Chus Mateo, too, and he will now hope that other results go Real’s way on Friday to propel his team into the top six, which would mean an automatic playoff berth. If not, Real is headed for the play-in with a good chance of making the business end of Europe’s premier club competition.

“It was a tough game and we were in trouble when their big guys started to score threes,” Mateo said. “We believed until the end though and never stopped thinking that we can win. We’ve got a big heart and we play with enormous pride, as it’s not easy to win six in a row in the EuroLeague.”

In a tight game where thin lines made the difference, Real thrived in the paint and won the battle of the boards 44-33, having collected 16 offensive rebounds to Partizan’s 10 as Tavares and [Serge Ibaka](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/serge-ibaka/003583/) bossed the area close to the basket.

Tavares racked up 14 points and 7 boards while veteran Ibaka posted 11 points and 10 rebounds, tracing the path to a tough road win which will boost Real’s confidence ahead of the upcoming challenges. 

The Spanish giant notched its seventh win in a row against its Serbian rival in dramatic fashion

Paris Basketball's debut season in the EuroLeague couldn't have gone much better, but on Friday night it will discover whether it finishes in the top six or has to play in the play-in.

Paris finished regular season on high, now awaits final results 

[Paris Basketball](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/paris-basketball/prs/) has been the surprise of the season as last year’s BKT EuroCup champion worked its way into the EuroLeague postseason, but Tiago Splitter's squad must now wait to find out who their next opponent will be and where – all the while being confident in their chances.

Coach Splitter was happy his team finished the regular season in strong fashion with [a 72-63 victory at home to ALBA Berlin](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/paris-dominates-alba-72-63-to-stay-alive-for-sixth-place/) to remain alive for a direct spot in the playoffs. 

“Today is a day where we can look at the macro – the whole season. I’m proud of the guys what they did the whole season, the regular season," said the Brazilian, whose side finished its debut EuroLeague campaign with a 19-15 record. 

"Now we have the play-in, playoffs, whatever we have in front of us. I’m really proud of how they managed the whole season – ups and downs and competing every game. That’s the most important thing. No game was easy against us. We showed a good spirit every night.

"We are not choosing or saying we want to play against anybody. We believe in ourselves and know we are a dangerous team and we will go from there.” 

While the team struggled to produce offensively against ALBA – scoring just 72 points, 14.9 points fewer than its average coming into the game – Paris only allowed 63 points, the fewest it conceded in any game this season. That came after Paris had allowed 101, 98 and 105 points in its last three games, all of which were on the road.

In the end, it was all about finishing strong and gaining confidence after Paris had been limping to the finish line with just two wins in its last seven games.

“It’s a blessing to have this opportunity. We worked really hard – the guys last season and this season,” said [Tyson Ward](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/tyson-ward/012610/), who scored 12 points to go with 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals in the win. 

“We had a great opportunity and we came in here and showed what we do best and that’s to play hard, have a lot of fun and brought our identity and style to the EuroLeague. This is just a product of us having fun. We get to enjoy the post-season this year and hopefully do some more in the future.”

AS Monaco made it four for four in playoff appearances after defeating LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne on Thursday night 78-83 to clinch its spot in the quarterfinal round

Monaco secures its spot in the playoffs for the fourth straight year

[AS Monaco](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/as-monaco/mco/) made it four for four in playoff appearances after [defeating LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne on Thursday night 78-83](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/monaco-holds-off-asvel-78-83-to-clinch-home-court-advantage-for-playoffs/) to clinch its spot in the quarterfinal round. Coach Vassilis Spanoulis's side follows Olympiacos Piraeus, Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul and Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens as the teams that have already secured their spots in the playoffs.

Moreover, Monaco will have home-court advantage in the best-of-five playoffs after claiming fourth place in the regular-season standings with a 21-13 record. It will have to wait until the end of Friday's games to learn its playoff opponent, with FC Barcelona, Anadolu Efes Istanbul and Real Madrid the potential foes.

### Monaco aims high with Spanoulis at the helm

Monaco had some early-season struggles as it opened the season with a 5-4 record. That eventually led to a coaching change, with Vassilis Spanoulis – a three-time champion as a player – taking the reins in November. A victory at Panathinaikos in his first game in charge was a positive sign, but Monaco lost three straight games in January to fall to 13-9. However, the team bounced back with three consecutive victories and finished the regular season with four wins in its last five games to climb the table and finish fourth.

This marks the third season in a row in which Monaco will have home-court advantage in the playoffs. It defeated Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv in Game 5 in 2023 and fell to Fenerbahce in the same spot last season. In the club’s playoff debut in 2022, Monaco lost in five games to Olympiacos with the fifth game played in Greece.

### Mike James is the heart of the team

[Mike James](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/mike-james/005985/), who is joined by [Alpha Diallo](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/alpha-diallo/011226/) and [Donatas Motiejunas](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/donatas-motiejunas/lcz/) as the only three players to play for Monaco in all of its four EuroLeague campaigns, was once again the go-to player for Monaco. The victory over ASVEL was just the latest example of his importance to Monaco as he scored 20 points – including the go-ahead free throws among his 5 points in the final minute – to lead the way. The 2024 EuroLeague MVP was one of only to players to play every game this season (the other being [Matthew Strazel](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/matthew-strazel/008099/)) and leads the team in scoring (15.8 ppg.), assists (5.7 apg.) and PIR (17.1).

With mid-season signing [Daniel Theis](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/daniel-theis/004132/) powering the frontline and [Elie Okobo](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/elie-okobo/011212/), [Jordan Loyd](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/jordan-loyd/009754/), Strazel and [Nick Calathes](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/nick-calathes/001932/) giving the team a deep and dangerous backcourt, Monaco promises to be a dangerous team in the playoffs.

Olympiacos BC center Moses Wright had his best performance yet since returning from a health scare, which should spell good news for the Reds entering the EuroLeague Playoffs.

Moses Wright offers Olympiacos another option ahead of postseason: 'It’s been great to be back'

[Moses Wright](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/moses-wright/012878/)’s season took an unexpected turn back in December, when reports stated that he may miss the remainder of the campaign due to a serious health issue. 

Despite being [Olympiacos Piraeus](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/olympiacos-piraeus/oly/)’s third-choice center in Georgios Bartzokas’s pecking order behind [Moustapha Fall](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/moustapha-fall/008811/) and [Nikola Milutinov](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/nikola-milutinov/003941/), Wright offers the Reds something distinctive with his energy, work ethic and ability to run the court.

With four games to go until the end of the 2024-25 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague regular season, and Wright having been given the medical all-clear, Bartzokas was forced to rush the 26-year-old back into action due to Milutinov’s absence through injury at LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne. His minutes have gradually increased ever since, with Wright netting 8 points in 13:47 minutes on the floor against ALBA Berlin last week.

With both Fall and Milutinov sidelined in Olympiacos’s last game of the season, it was time for Wright to send a message loud and clear.

“I’ve been out for so long,” he told EuroLeague TV after [Olympiacos’s 99-93 win over Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/undermanned-olympiacos-defeats-maccabi-99-93-to-clinch-top-spot/) on Thursday night. “It’s been great to be back on the court. I’ve been missing basketball so much. Getting out there, fighting for my teammates.”

And fight from the off he did. Wright scored half of his team’s first 12 points before heading to the bench for a well-deserved breather. After charging up his batteries, he returned to the court to provide his team with an energy boost on both ends, effectively filling the frontcourt void left by the two absent Olympiacos bigs.

Wright went 7 for 10 from inside to finish the game with 18 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal for a team-high PIR of 28. Most importantly, he provided Olympiacos with a valuable extra option off the bench ahead of the much anticipated playoffs.

“The playoffs are such a big thing in everybody’s life,” Wright added. “Everybody who plays sports always wants to get to the postseason and just do great in the postseason.”

A player with different qualities from Fall and Milutinov, Wright has already proved in the past he can pull off a game-changing outing when his team needs to flip the switch. Fall and Milutinov are expected to be fit in time for postseason, but their fellow center proved on Thursday night that he’s rediscovering his form just in time and he’s ready to step up when it matters most.

The 26-year-old center pulled off a player-of-the-game performance against Maccabi
