On what ended up being a straightforward night for Vassilis Spanoulis’s AS Monaco, last season’s EuroLeague runner-up laid down a marker in its Rivalry Series clash at LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne on Wednesday.

Monaco keeps its foot on the throttle en route to record night

On what ended up being a straightforward night for Vassilis Spanoulis’s [AS Monaco](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/teams/as-monaco/mco/), last season’s EuroLeague runner-up laid down a marker in its Rivalry Series clash at [LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/teams/ldlc-asvel-villeurbanne/asv/) on Wednesday.

Monaco came into the game having won seven straight games against ASVEL in the EuroLeague, with the only blot on its record being an 84-85 defeat in their first-ever meeting in Europe’s elite – a contest that saw [William Howard score a buzzer-beating three-pointer from the parking lot](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owGlCJvEnu0) to secure a memorable victory.

In this latest installment, Monaco’s quality showed against an error-prone ASVEL, grabbing a 52-84 win and making a bit of history in the process.

The 32-point difference between the teams, confirmed by a [Juhann Begarin](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/juhann-begarin/008161/) dunk with one second to go, ensured this was the biggest triumph in Monaco’s EuroLeague history, surpassing the 30-point winning margin it had in [a 69-99 victory at Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/news/monaco-made-a-statement-with-huge-win-at-fenerbahce/) in 2024-25.

That’s not all. By holding ASVEL to just 52 points, Monaco set another club record for the fewest points allowed by an opponent, beating the 60 it [limited Olympiacos Piraeus to in a 64-60 win](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/news/monaco-turnaround-downs-olympiacos-64-60/) in 2022-23. Coach Spanoulis’s side also made a club-record 18 steals on the night, 5 more than its previous best (both in 2021-22).

Both teams will come away feeling like they could – and should – have played better, but for Monaco it was important to get back in the winning column after suffering back-to-back losses at Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade and Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade in the double-round week last week.

“Last week, ASVEL won against Partizan and we lost there, so the EuroLeague is like this,” Coach Spanoulis told EuroLeague TV after the game. “We played incredibly good defense.”

However, there is still room for improvement.

“I think we can play much better, but for me a win is a win,” he added. “I think we played incredibly good defense – we were locked in, we were concentrated.

“For sure, we can play better. It’s still November. We have a lot of things to improve, like shooting percentages, rebounds, rhythm of the game, consistency. It’s normal, it’s November.”

For star guard [Mike James](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/players/mike-james/005985/), it was important that Monaco found a way to shake off its shaky start – it only scored 14 points in the first quarter – and begin to pull away, going on to lead 21-34 at the half and then 40-64 after three quarters.

“We started a little bit sloppy,” he admitted to EuroLeague TV. “I think the game in general was kind of sloppy. But we fought through, picked it up and came out with the win. Another game on the road, you’ve got to bring something from it.”

Wednesday night was Monaco’s fourth straight road game and its sixth in the last seven, but it now has the chance to start picking up some real momentum with five of its next six EuroLeague fixtures taking place at Salle Gaston Medecin, including the next three in a row.

Sitting on a 7-5 record after 12 games, don’t be surprised if you see Monaco surge up the standings as we head towards the turn of the year.

ASVEL had no answer for its French League rival

Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana picked up its third straight triumph to pull into a three-way tie for first place in Group A of the BKT EuroCup by beating winless Veolia Towers Hamburg 93-73 to improve to 6-2. 

Coach Mitrovic praises team focus as Cedevita controls Hamburg 

Coach Zvezdan Mitrovic really praised his Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana team for focusing on delivering a strong performance in a comfortable win over Veolia Towers Hamburg just two days after getting an emotional victory in the ABA League.

Cedevita picked up its third straight triumph to pull into a three-way tie for first place in Group A of the BKT EuroCup by beating winless Hamburg 93-73 to improve to 6-2.

“We put a lot of pressure on them with energy. We controlled the game from the beginning. We had some problems in the first quarter with some rebounds but otherwise we had the game in our hands,” said the Cedevita coach in the post-game interview.

“In this period, this was the most important game for us. We respect all teams when they arrive here. As you can see, this is a team - okay they are bottom of the league - but they are a team with a lot of very good players. This, you can see on the court. And last year we lost our last game against Hamburg. I was very focused and I tried to focus my players on the game.”

And Cedevita did that. The home side went on a 12-1 run to take a 17-point lead at 41-24 in the second quarter. Hamburg only managed to get within 10 points the rest of the way and it was no closer than 12 points in the second half.

Cedevita committed only 9 turnovers while shooting 65.1% on two-pointers and grabbing 13 offensive rebounds. Five players scored in double figures, led by DJ Stewart’s 17 points and 4 assists, while Thomas Kennedy tied a career high with 14 points and grabbed 10 rebounds.

“No wins are easy. They hung around for a long time. We got out to a lead and they went on run. So, controlling the game was important for us. The margin might make it look easy, but still we performed well,” said Kennedy, who wowed the crowd with a massive dunk after a drive to the basket early in the third quarter.

“Every win is important, especially on the home court, especially games you are supposed to win. We want to keep rolling.”

Cedevita is now even atop Group A with Hapoel Midtown Jerusalem and Bahcesehir College Istanbul.

And the win came just two days after Cedevita knocked off EuroLeague co-leader Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade 87-86 at home to stay atop Group B of the ABA League.

“Two days ago we played for us and our level, an amazing game against Crvena Zvezda,” Mitrovic said. “I think in the end, this result is realistic.  I am happy about this. I really congratulate my players.”

At the other end of the standings is Hamburg, which has now lost all 15 of its games this season, including all eight in the EuroCup. New addition Devon Daniels looks like a good signing as he collected 19 points and 5 assists in his debut with the club and Zacharie Perrin continued his strong season, the French youngster amassing 14 points and 6 rebounds.

But Hamburg shot only 47.6% on two-pointers as well as 30.8% from long range. The German side came into the game ranked 19th in scoring (78.0 ppg), 16th in two-point shooting (50.5%) and last in three-pointers (25.9%).

Hamburg head coach Benka Barloschky tried to sound upbeat after the game.

"I think we’re getting better - slowly, day by day, game by game. We lose by 20 points, but I don’t think that we were 20 points worse tonight. We have to find a way to accept the physical level of this game,” he said.

“We have good players with a lot of potential and slowly we’re working ourselves to that level. It’s taking us longer this year, but I am still very optimistic. I’m still proud of this group because they are making steps. At some point, if we keep working in the right way, we will reward ourselves with a win. And that will hopefully give us more energy for the next tasks ahead.”

The regular season is still one game shy of the halfway point, but Hamburg already finds itself four games behind the final spot for the playoffs. Cedevita, on the other hand, has to feel good about itself going into the national team break.

The 20-point win came two days after beating EuroLeague leader Crvena Zvezda in the ABA League

In a tense battle that went down to the wire, Lietkabelis Panevezys snapped its losing skid with a 72-79 road win at Panionios Cosmorama Travel Athens in Round 8 of the 2025-26 BKT EuroCup

Lietkabelis's Jamel Morris heats up in fourth quarter to down Panionios

Despite getting off to a strong start in their domestic league with six wins in nine games – including a victory away at EuroLeague side Zalgiris Kaunas – Lietkabelis Panevezys hadn’t managed to carry that form into the BKT EuroCup.

Having lost six consecutive duels in Europe, Coach Nenad Canak’s team headed to Athens facing a must-win clash against a struggling Panionios Cosmorama Travel Athens that had suffered 13 consecutive defeats across all competitions.

In a tense battle that went down to the wire, Lietkabelis finally snapped its skid with a 72-79 road win.

A low-scoring first quarter saw Lietkabelis take a 12-16 lead into the second, with the visitors maintaining a narrow 31-35 cushion at halftime. Panionios outscored the Lithuanian side 21-20 in the third quarter, slightly cutting the difference to 52-55 heading into the fourth.

Lietkabelis needed somebody to come through in the clutch, but few would have expected that this performance would be produced by a player who had gone 0-for-10 on field goals in the first 32 minutes of the game.

After struggling to find his touch from either inside or outside the arc, Jamel Morris opened his account with a three-point play to make it 52-60 with 7:20 left on the clock. Panionios fought back and trimmed the deficit to 59-62, but Morris nailed a triple and a turnaround jumper for a 61-69 lead.

The last comeback attempt by the hosts saw them cut the difference to 68-73 with 1:39 remaining, but Morris would have none of it. The Lietkabelis guard drained a step-back triple from the EuroCup logo to deal Panionios a major blow, practically killing the game off. The 33-year-old netted all his points in the last 7 minutes of the game, having scored 16 of his team’s 24 in the fourth quarter.

He was assisted by a solid Augustine Rubit, who pulled off a complete performance for yet another game. Lietkabelis’s top scorer so far this term bagged 12 points, having gone 3-for-6 on two-pointers and 6-for-7 from the charity stripe. He also downed 8 rebounds, but more importantly, Rubit recorded a career-high 4 steals, contributing most on the defensive end.

“It’s always important just to stick together,” Rubit said after the game. “It’s been a tough stretch for both teams. I think we played great defense today. We’ve been getting better and we showed it tonight.”

In fact, Lietkabelis allowed a season-low 72 points after conceding at least 93 in four of its last five games. The visitors put an end to a six-game losing streak by recording their first road victory of the season – a major and much-needed injection of confidence in their bid to climb up the rankings and reach the playoff spots.

To do so, the Lithuanian side will need to capitalize on their momentum by recording a second straight victory for the first time this season. The upcoming international break gives Lietkabelis the opportunity to work on rediscovering its form, with the team's next duel against the London Lions scheduled to take place on December 4 on home soil.

As Morris proved on Wednesday evening, it’s never too late to get back on your feet and Coach Canak’s team definitely has what it takes to turn the page and push for a playoff spot in the remainder of the campaign.

The guard came alive late to score 16 of his team's 24 points in the last 10 minutes

Besiktas shoots the lights out in derby win over Turk Telekom

Besiktas GAIN Istanbul owned the Turkish derby, staying in control from start to finish to beat Turk Telekom Ankara 93–84 on the road.

With a strong Besiktas fan presence at Ankara Sports Hall on Wednesday night and both teams starting with the same record in Group B, the visitors leaned on their depth and timely three-point shooting. Contributions came from all over the roster as Besiktas powered its way to 6–2.

Devon Dotson led the charge with 20 points, knocking down big shots to keep Besiktas in command throughout.

‘‘This game felt like an ultimate home game,’’ Dotson said at the end. ‘‘We knew what we needed to do, and my teammates helped me out, and they brought the energy from day one. We got the win, I’m very proud.’’

Besiktas leaned on its most potent weapon, its sharp shooting from beyond the arc, to power the win. Every time Turk Telekom tried to swing momentum their way, timely threes broke the resistance.

On the defensive end, Besiktas forced 14 turnovers, further disrupting  Turk Telekom's rhythm. The deep roster delivered across the board, with every player hitting the scoreboard. Dotson led the charge in the third quarter, and Jonah Matthews added 18 points, including key threes in the fourth, to seal the victory. Another critical contributor was Brynton Lemar, who hit crucial threes and added 15 points, while Ismael Kamagate dominated the paint on both ends.

Coach Dusan Alimpijevic praised the team’s approach and the fans’ impact: ‘‘They risked with these three-point shots, they let us shoot. So, we took our opportunity. I have to say that I am incredibly proud of my fans to create this atmosphere, I had a feeling like I played at home. This is amazing what the Besiktas club is doing. This is something very special for me.’’

Turk Telekom couldn’t keep up with Besiktas from beyond the arc. The visitors knocked down 45.2% of their threes, while the Ankara side hit just 4-of-22, struggling to create alternative scoring opportunities. Turk Telekom ended up allowing its highest point total in the last five games.

‘‘This game is one of the worst defensive efforts that we've had since the beginning of the season,’’ Coach Erdem Can said after the game.

‘‘We've played bad games, but this kind of defensive effort against this level of team, it's not possible to win the game. We couldn’t contain one-on-one. Also, offensively we lost our pace, so we need to get our lesson from this game... We have many other tough games. We need to prepare ourselves.’’

In Round 9, Besiktas will take on Panionios Cosmorama Travel Athens, while Turk Telekom heads to Germany for a road clash against NINERS Chemnitz.

Xavi Pascual didn’t waste any time setting expectations as he stepped back into the spotlight Wednesday, holding his first press conference in his second stint as FC Barcelona’s head coach. Roughly 50 media members crowded into the room – a turnout big enough that veteran center Jan Vesely joked about it after practice – and Pascual delivered a steady message: the past is off-limits, and the focus is entirely on what comes next.

Xavi Pascual: ‘I’ve come to Barça for one reason – to win’

[Xavi Pascual](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/news/fc-barcelona-reunites-with-coach-xavi-pascual/) didn’t waste any time setting expectations as he stepped back into the spotlight Wednesday, holding his first press conference in his second stint as [FC Barcelona](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/teams/fc-barcelona/bar/)’s head coach. Roughly 50 media members crowded into the room – a turnout big enough that veteran center Jan Vesely joked about it after practice – and Pascual delivered a steady message: the past is off-limits, and the focus is entirely on what comes next.

“I will never make any reference to the past,” Pascual said. “I have a lot of respect for Joan \[Peñarroya\] and everything he did. From now on, we talk about what *we* do – good or bad.”

Peñarroya was dismissed 10 days earlier, and interim coach Oscar Orellana guided Barça to a 3-0 week before Pascual’s arrival. Pascual made sure Orellana received his due. “We have to congratulate Oscar and his staff for those three important victories,” he said. “The players have been extraordinary these last two days. The intensity, the concentration… it creates excitement. We’re ready to play.”

Pascual, who previously coached Barça from 2008 to 2016, admitted he always believed a return was possible, even if the timing surprised him. “I always imagined that one day I could come back,” he said with a smile. “I’ve been waiting for the call for eight years, but it never arrived. All over Europe, people told me, ‘You’ll end up back at Barça.’ I didn’t know when, but I always felt it might happen.”

The 52-year-old Catalan coach is one of the most accomplished in club history, having delivered the 2010 EuroLeague title along with four Spanish League and three Spanish Cup trophies during his nine-year run. He made clear that expectations remain unchanged. “I have come to Barça for one reason: to win,” Pascual said. “There are no transition seasons here. We’ll say it loudly – our goal is to compete for every title.”

Despite speculation about midseason roster moves, Pascual insisted he’ll take time to evaluate the group before making any decisions. Every coach and every player, he emphasized, starts with a clean slate. “I make decisions based on what I see and feel,” he said. “That’s why I haven’t changed any staff member. Everyone stays, everyone can show their value. The players will work with me, and based on that, we’ll decide if we need to make a move. Right now, we all have to be on the same page.”

Since leaving Barcelona in 2016, Pascual has coached at Zenit St. Petersburg and Panathinaikos, gaining experience managing different roster styles and taking over midseason, something he believes prepared him for this moment. “Experience is the accumulation of mistakes,” he said. “I’ve learned a lot about the European basketball reality. I’m still the same person, the same coach, but with more perspective and confidence.”

Pascual made it clear he didn’t return to build toward next season. The goal is to be competitive immediately. “This is Barcelona,” he said. “We play to win, not just to be there. I told the players directly: I’m not here to build something for next season. I’m here because I believe we can do big things *now*.”

After two years away from the EuroLeague, Pascual also acknowledged how meaningful the opportunity is. “I feel like a EuroLeague coach,” he said. “Not being there was hard for me. So I’m very happy to be back – and to do it with my club.”

Bouncing for Good lands in Valencia

*Bouncing for Good*, the community initiative by **Motorola** and **Euroleague Basketball’s One Team** program, continued its **second-season journey across EMEA** with a new event held yesterday in a newly refurbished public basketball court with kids from the ‘**Col·legi Diocesà Santiago Apòstol’,** at the heart of Valencia’s **Cabanyal** neighborhood.

The ‘Col·legi Diocesà Santiago Apòstol’ is a school located in the Cabanyal neighborhood of Valencia, Spain and it is deeply rooted in its local community, offering quality education to children from diverse cultural and social backgrounds.

The school is recognized also for its strong social commitment and close collaboration with local organizations as its educational projects aim to promote social equality and personal growth through active community participation.

The activity brought together children from the school for an afternoon filled with **learning, creativity, and basketball**, led by Valencia Basket’s One Team players, **Sergio De Larrea and Kameron Taylor and the coaches [of Valencia’s One Team Program](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/one-team/our-programs-valencia-basket/)**. The session focused on **teamwork, inclusion, and respect**, using the power of sport and technology to inspire and connect young people from diverse backgrounds.

Throughout the day, participants enjoyed a series of **interactive workshops and games** that blended education with fun — from team challenges and collaborative activities to the creative **“Perfect Ball” painting session**, where children designed a basketball reflecting the values learned during the event.

“As someone from Valencia, it is especially meaningful for me to see Bouncing for Good grow and touch the lives of children in my home city,” said **Clara Borrás, Marketing Director at Motorola Iberia.** “Valencia represents the spirit of this program — a diverse, creative community where basketball is part of our culture. Together with Euroleague Basketball and One Team, we are proud to use technology and sport to promote inclusion, creativity, and meaningful social impact.”

The celebration concluded with a **donation ceremony**, where players and partners handed out over 100 **basketballs to the school and jerseys** to all participants. Smiles, laughter, and team spirit filled the school as children and ambassadors shared one last group photo to commemorate the occasion.

“It is always great to be part of these kinds of initiatives and spend time with the kids. It's something that we value a lot and that makes us happy,” said Sergio De Larrea. "Values that have been worked and discussed today like teamwork, for example, are something that we think of and apply on our day-to-day. To help your teammate or colleague achieve the common goal. I think these are very valuable lessons for the kids, and I’m very happy to be able to contribute to this.”

The **“Perfect Ball”** created by the children will be hand-painted by a local artist and later presented during an upcoming **EuroLeague game**, symbolizing how basketball and creativity can unite communities and inspire future generations.

Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana pulled into a three-way tie for first place in Group A with a comfortable 93-73 home victory over Veolia Towers Hamburg with the visitors still looking for their first win of the season.

Reyer bounced back from its painful road loss at Ljubljana by beating visiting Manresa 97-93 at Palasport Taliercio on Wednesday night. The home team built a 54-45 advantage after 20 minutes behind 17 first-half points by Kyle Wiltjer, and extended it to double-digits, 83-72, early in the fourth quarter. A strong reaction led by Alfonso Plummer and Grant Golden in the last quarter sent the game to the line entering the last minute, but a basket off an offensive rebound by Jordan Parks and a couple of free throws by RJ Cole sealed the outcome for the hosts. 

Reyer improved its record to 4-4, while Manresa dropped to 3-5 after suffering its fourth straight loss, including three straight in which it's allowed 97 or more points. Kyle Wiltjer paced Reyer with season-high 20 points, RJ Cole followed with 14 points, Leonardo Candi had 12, Jordan parks poured in 11, and Stefan Nikolic and Denzel Valentine scored 10 apiece. Alfonso Plummer led Manresa’s resistance with 21 points and 5 three-pointers, Grant Golden added 16, Alex Reyes provided 11 and Louis Olinde finished with 10 in the losing effort.

Bourg battled to overcome London in a tense but entertaining contest at Copper Box Arena on Wednesday, 68-72. Bourg made the brighter start to open up an early lead, but found itself in foul trouble in the second quarter, which provided the Lions a chance to claw their way back level. As the teams split for halftime, Coach Frederic Fauthoux’s men led by just a single point.

The game went back and forth at the restart, with both teams refusing to give up. The hosts earned multiple leads in the third period, but failed to open up a substantial margin. Coach Tautvydas Sabonis’s charges kept chase until the very end, but it wasn’t to be. The visitors put on a professional display in the final moments and secured the 4-point victory.

Darius McGhee led the winners with 14 points and 6 assists. Both Gach scored 10 points of his own, while center Kevin Kokila combined 10 points with 6 boards. London lost despite Joel Scott’s strong performance; the forward added 7 rebounds and 4 assists to his 23 points. The result pushes table-topping Bourg to 7-1 for the EuroCup season. Meanwhile, the Lions slide to 3-5, drawing them level with NINERS Chemnitz on the brink of a qualification spot.

### [U-BT Cluj-Napoca 89-101 Hapoel Midtown Jerusalem](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/eurocup/game-center/2025-26/u-bt-cluj-napoca-hapoel-midtown-jerusalem/U2025/73/) 

Jerusalem fended off a fierce second-half onslaught from Cluj to come out on top 89-101 and improve to 6-2, while the Romanian outfit dropped to 4-4 after wiping out a 19-point deficit only to fall short in a frantic climax.

Hapoel made a flying start and steamrolled into a 21-38 lead in the opening period, breaking the club record for points scored in a single quarter. The visitors shot 6-of-7 from downtown to silence the home crowd. Cluj regained some composure in the second, but Hapoel kept up the pressure and carved out a 43-58 advantage at halftime. In a rip-roaring third quarter, Cluj fired on all cylinders and turned the game on its head to take a 75-71 lead as Daron Russel hit top gear. Hapoel nosed in front 75-76 ahead of the final 10 minutes and the lead then changed hands several times in a see-saw fourth quarter before the Israeli side found an extra gear in the home straight.

Anthony Lamb paced Hapoel on 17 points, while Jared Harper and Cassius Winston chipped in with 16 apiece and Austin Wiley racked up 10 points to go with 11 boards for the visiting team. Mitch Creek led Cluj on a game-high 26 points, Saulius Kulvietis added 18 and Russel 15.

### [Neptunas Kleipeda 87-93 Aris Thessaloniki Betsson](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/eurocup/game-center/2025-26/neptunas-klaipeda-aris-thessaloniki-betsson/U2025/72/)

Aris got back to winning ways by beating Neptunas 87-93 at Svyturio Arena on Tuesday evening. The hosts went 4-for-4 from deep to open the game and took a 28-21 lead into the second quarter, where they were outscored 18-29 by Aris, which secured a 46-50 cushion at halftime.

The Greek side held Neptunas to just 3 points in the first 7 minutes of the third quarter and went on a 0-16 surge to open a 49-66 lead. A late 9-0 run by Neptunas brought them within 87-90 with just a minute left on the clock, but Elijah Mitrou-Long drilled a clutch step-back triple to finish the game off. Aris improved its record to 4-4, with Neptunas dropping to 3-5.

Amine Noua paced Aris with 24, while Mitrou-Long and Bryce Jones netted 17 each. Rihards Lomazs led all scorers with a season-high 26 points, Arnas Velicka scored 13 and Harrison Cleary added 12.

NINERS Chemnitz scored a 105-94 road win at Dolomiti Energia Trento at the BTS Arena on Tuesday night. Both teams made a slow start in the first quarter, with Trento finishing on top by a point. Chemnitz pulled away in the second period however, led by Kevin Yebo and Corey Davis. As the teams split for halftime, Massimo Cancellieri’s team was up by 16.

Kevin Yebo led the game in scoring with 33, while also picking up 8 boards and 3 assists. Spreading the offensive load effectively, five other Chemnitz players finished on double digit scoring. Jakimovski  scored a career-high 30 points in defeat. The result moves both teams to 3-5 on the season.

Round 8: Pregame quotes and injury reports

## Wednesday, November 19, 2025

### Turk Telekom Ankara vs. Besiktas GAIN Istanbul (17:00 CET)

\--

### Panionios Cosmorama Travel Athens vs. Lietkabelis Panevezys (18:30 CET)

\--

### Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana vs. Veolia Towers Hamburg (18:30 CET)

**Zvezdan Mitrovic, Cedevita Olimpija head coach**

“After the regional league game against Crvena Zvezda, we have very little time for recovery and preparation for the clash with Hamburg. We must enter the duel motivated. Hamburg is an extremely athletic team; against every opponent this season, they have practically been in the game for the win until the very end. Recently, their roster has undergone some changes, and our opponents are coming to Stozice rested, as they had a free round in the German championship. We must be prepared for that.”

**Aleksej Nikolic, Cedevita Olimpija guard**

“We are certainly facing an extremely important game in Stozice. After the win over Crvena Zvezda, we must stay humble but still confident, play the game we have been showing recently, and build on the chemistry we are displaying on the court. We enjoy playing with each other, and we need to keep that going. Hamburg has made some changes in their roster, and the new energy that comes into a team can always be very dangerous. Our opponents will come to Stozice without pressure, with the desire to record their first win of the season. We must prevent that.”

**Benka Barloschky, Hamburg head coach**<br>
“Cedevita is a team that moves a lot offensively – the ball, the players, with many off-ball screens. Preparing our players for communication and physicality was a key focus. It will be important that we stay united for 40 minutes. The key lies in ‘we,’ not ‘I’ – that’s how team sports have always worked. That’s our focus.”

**Devon Daniels, Hamburg guard**<br>
“I was pleasantly surprised by the team atmosphere after arriving. In my first days, I’ve seen a real unit – everyone wants that first win. I feel well integrated; the players made it easy by talking to me a lot, and the coaches too. I feel I’ve quickly understood the philosophy. I hope to contribute my strengths soon to help turn things around.”

Aleksej Nikolic, Cedevita Olimpija guard

### Umana Reyer Venice vs. BAXI Manresa (20:00 CET)

**Neven Spahija, Reyer head coach**

"Every commitment we face has great significance for us. We are measuring ourselves against a high-level team whose on-court performance does not fully reflect their true potential and the quality of their roster. We are aware that in Spain, in the Liga Endesa, the level of competition is incredibly high. Manresa, in particular, when they manage to impose themselves, they do so with excellent performances. We have analyzed the opponent and prepared the game. We will step onto the court with maximum confidence in our abilities and, thanks to the fundamental support of our fans, we aim to conquer another victory. In EuroCup, the importance of every home match is paramount and decisive for our journey. After the performance in Ljubljana, we gave an excellent response against Reggio Emilia. However, we want to achieve greater completeness and consistency on both ends of the floor. Furthermore, in the last few games, we have started poorly and we must correct this tendency: it is crucial to bring maximum concentration right from the tip-off."

**Amedeo Tessitori, Reyer center**

"This game is shaping up to be of fundamental importance. We will face a direct opponent with whom we currently share the same position in the standings. It will be a true direct clash for our EuroCup \[goals\]. We know we are facing an extremely dynamic and aggressive team that favors a high-possession style of basketball. To be successful, we will have to be good at imposing our rhythm and exploiting our physicality on the court. Our main goal is to maintain maximum solidity for all 40 minutes, eliminating the 'down' moments that sometimes characterize our games. Consistency will be the key. We have practiced with great intensity and prepared the match in an extremely detailed manner. We feel ready and determined to face this challenge."

**Reyer injury report**: All players are available.

### London Lions vs. Cosea JL Bourg-en-Bresse (20:30 CET)

**Tautvydas Sabonis, London Lions head coach**

"Defense (is what we need to do to get a win). Like always, our physicality, our energy, our aggressiveness are the most important factors. They’re a very tough team, obviously first in our group, a lot of shooting, a lot of running, so we have to be very, very focused and execute the game plan."

**Tarik Phillip, London Lions guard**

"Bourg is a good team - the number one team in our group. They play fast, they shoot a lot of threes, they play physical and have a lot of athleticism. We have to stick to our game plan, stick to what we do, and come out with a win."

**Frederic Fauthoux, Bourg head coach**

"We're traveling for a big game: we need to be ready. London is an athletic team with a deep roster, a different style, and a strong focus on the paint. It's up to us to impose our game, adapt, stay focused and aggressive to get the win and keep moving forward."

**Both Gach, Bourg forward**

"We are going into this game looking to win as we do with every match. The teams mentality is high as we are looking to keeping our win streak in EuroCup going, for us it is to keep playing our game and bringing that defensive intensity that we have been playing with."

**London Lions' injury report:** Ovie Soko, Mo Soluade and Shavar Reynolds are all ruled out.

Tarik Phillip, London Lions guard

## Tuesday, November 18, 2025

### U-BT Cluj-Napoca vs. Hapoel Midtown Jerusalem (18:00 CET)

**Mihai Silvasan, Cluj head coach**

"A very important game for us, because we’re facing one of the top teams in this competition. They have big ambitions, they’ve made major investments, and they have quality players. They are ahead of us in the standings, they are 5–2, we are 4–3, so it is a very important match for us if we want to fight for the top two, three places at the end of the regular season. They have point guards who are extremely capable of scoring from tough situations, but we also have our own weapons. We want to play good defense. I believe this will be the key to success. The last week has been difficult, after the game with BAXI Manresa we had to leave directly for Podgorica, but this is the situation, and we’re trying to be physically ready at game time. I hope the arena will be full or almost full, we really need the fans at this game. It’s probably the most important game of this EuroCup season until now and surely the fans’ support can push us toward victory."

**Dusan Miletic, Cluj center**

"We will definitely play against a very good team; they are in second place in the group. I believe we can win, but we need to be very aggressive. They have a good roster, especially their guards, who are very aggressive, and I think most of the team’s points come from them. Their big men also have an important role; they execute well, they run well, but I think that if we stick to the plan and follow the rules, we will win."

### Neptunas Kleipeda vs. Aris Thessaloniki Betsson (18:00 CET)

**Igor Milicic, Aris head coach**

“After two very tough games we are having just one day between the games and a tough trip. But we are going there with clear mind and we are very focused on what we have to do. We have clear minds that we have to be concentrated on their shooters. They play a tough offense, we have to use a lot of energy in order to win the game.”

**Georgios Gkiouzelis, Aris forward**

“We are playing a difficult away game against a good, quality team. We understand the demands of the game and we respect our opponent, but at the same time we have prepared properly. We have worked on our game plan, we know what we need to do on the court, and we believe in our abilities.<br>
For us, this game is very important, both in terms of standings and for the rest of the season. We want to show character, stay focused for 40 minutes, and fight for the win.”

### Buducnost VOLI Podgorica vs. ratiopharm ulm (19:00 CET)

**Andrej Zakelj, Buducnost head coach**

"I think this is a very important game for both teams. For us, it’s an opportunity to maintain a good rhythm in the EuroCup, because a win would put us where we want to be. I believe Ulm has the same ambitions. We are currently dealing with some injury problems, but whoever is on the roster will have to leave their heart on the court in order for us to get the win in front of our home crowd. Ulm plays very good basketball — fast and athletic. If we are not tough enough, aggressive enough, and fully focused, we could have problems, just like most teams that have played against them. I hope for strong support from our fans."

**Zoran Nikolic, Buducnost center**

"We are expecting a tough game against a very talented team that plays with a lot of contact and at a very fast pace. We need to adapt to that and try to establish our own rhythm. A good thing is that we recently played against Chemnitz, a team with some similarities in style to our next opponent, so we can prepare even better. I believe we have a good chance to win in front of our fans, and that is our goal. It will be a very physical game, with a lot of contact, and we will need to respond the right way, because they will come out aggressively from the first minute."

### Slask Wroclaw vs. Bahcesehir College Istanbul (19:00 CET)

\--

### Dolomiti Energia Trento vs. NINERS Chemnitz (20:00 CET)

**Davide Dusmet, Trento assistant coach**

“Chemnitz is an athletic team that plays at a high pace and takes a huge number of shots, creating many situations for perimeter attempts: in fact, they are the team that takes the most three-point shots in the entire EuroCup. They have very dangerous one-on-one guards, such as Corey Davis and Sibande, as well as athletic and versatile big men who can both roll to the rim and stretch the floor. We come from a game where we had some good moments, but also many mistakes on both ends of the court that prevented us from bringing home the win yesterday in Sassari. We need to be more solid for all 40 minutes and focus on the aspects of the game that must allow us to win. We will certainly need strong defensive transition, solid open-court situations, and individual responsibility in one-on-one situations, and we will also all need to be very attentive on rebounds.”

**Selom Mawugbe, Trento center**

“We want to make the playoffs, so this game will be very important to take a step in that direction. It will also be fundamental for us to bounce back: it’s true that we are going through a difficult period with many injuries, but that’s part of a season and we don’t want to look for excuses. We need to find the way back to winning. Chemnitz is a very good team, as all the teams in the EuroCup are, so we will need to be very focused on respecting our game plan. It will take a great effort from everyone to win, and we will have to do whatever it takes to make that happen.”

Check out what the protagonists are saying ahead of Round 8 of the 2025-26 EuroCup season, and who might be missing in action.

Kevin Yebo and NINERS Chemnitz earned a road win for the first time in the club’s EuroCup tenure, defeating Dolomiti Energia Trento, 105-94, at BTS Arena in Round 8 of the 2025-26 BKT EuroCup.

Kevin Yebo takes over as NINERS win in Trento

“This is our first away game win in EuroCup history, so it’s really important for our fans, as well as for our whole organization,” said Kevin Yebo after his NINERS Chemnitz team defeated Dolomiti Energia Trento, 105-94.

Yebo and his teammates had indeed made history for the NINERS, who earned a road win for the first time in the club’s short EuroCup tenure, at BTS Arena on Tuesday night.

Trento made the brighter start, edging ahead in the opening period, but Chemnitz pulled away in the second quarter, led by Yebo and Corey Davis. As the teams went into halftime, the visitors were up by 16.

NINERS widened the gap to 22 soon after the restart, but the home crowd saw their team fight back. Devante Jones and Andrej Jakimovski sank huge buckets to pull the hosts back into the contest, but it wasn’t to be. When all was said and done, Rodrigo Pastore’s men had secured the 11-point victory. The winning coach said that he believes there is still room to improve, however.

“It was a very good game for a while, but there was a moment when our one-on-one defense wasn’t there, they were getting to the paint, getting rebounds, getting kick-out open threes,” Pastore stated. “We have to improve, but I’m very happy that many guys used their opportunity today.”

Somebody who certainly made the most of his opportunity was Yebo. The German forward led the game in scoring with 33 points, to which he added 8 boards and 3 assists, shooting 56% from the field.

“It’s nothing new to us, it’s Kevin Yebo,” said Pastore.

Yebo himself attributed his success to the travelling Chemnitz faithful: “I had a lot of fun with these guys today. It was fun. They’re doing it every time back home, we have the best fans in Germany and I’m glad that they came here.”

Yebo wasn’t alone in getting the job done. The road team spread the offensive load effectively, with 5 other Chemnitz players finishing on double digit scoring. The result was tough on Trento’s Andrej Jakimovski, who combined 30 points with 8 rebounds in the loss.

Both teams now sit on 3-5 records. NINERS will attempt to carry this momentum to December 4, when it faces Turk Telekom Ankara. Trento will need to regroup ahead of a meeting with ratiopharm ulm in a fortnight.

The forward went off for 33 points as his team earned its first EuroCup road win 

Slask Wroclaw delighted its fans with a 99-91 win over Bahcesehir College Istanbul, which came into the round in sole possession of first place in Group A. 

Slask stays hot at home to take down Bahcesehir 

Slask Wroclaw delighted its fans with a 99-91 win over Bahcesehir College Istanbul, which came into the round in sole possession of first place in Group A. While Bahcesehir dropped to 6-2, Slask improved to 4-4 to grab a share of fourth place. 

Noah Kirkwood was at the heart of Slask’s second-half surge, stepping forward and giving his team exactly the spark it needed. The Canadian guard took over offensively, knocking down big shots from beyond the arc as he hit 5-of-7 from three, and added 6 assists and 4 rebounds while pouring in 21 points to finish as the home side’s top scorer and a steady force throughout the night.

‘‘I’m really happy with how we played,’’ said Kirkwood, ‘‘We didn't let any of these circumstances about how big a club they are, they're winning record atop the EuroCup… We just wanted to play our basketball and today we hit some shots and gave energy and got the win.’’

The first half was tight as Bahcesehir forced Slask into turnovers, but the home side, starting 10 points behind, leaned on Kadre Gray and Stefan Dordevic to stay in the game. Gray poured in 13 points in the opening 20 minutes while Dordevic dominated inside with 12, keeping Slask within reach heading into halftime.

‘‘We actually didn’t start so good, there were some bad decisions.’’ said Coach Ainars Bagatskis, ‘‘We lost the ball a few times and they got that 10-point advantage. But after that, we started to play without hesitation.’’

The second half saw a more aggressive Slask Wroclaw step out of the locker room on both ends of the floor, capitalizing on Bahcesehir’s defensive lapses. The home side grabbed 13 offensive rebounds, turning those extra opportunities into a decisive edge that helped swing the game their way.

Reflecting on that shift, Coach Ainars said, ‘‘I’m just gonna repeat what I said to my team before the game. If you wanna survive, if you wanna be successful in this game, we have to play not with aggressiveness, not with physicality. But with a double aggressiveness, double physicality.’’

Slask continued its strong home form, scoring at least 92 points once again and keeping its offense rolling. Great shooting from beyond the arc broke down Bahcesehir’s resistance and gave the home side the edge it needed to secure the win.

Bahcesehir suffered its first road loss of the season, struggling from beyond the arc with just 5-of-28 three-point shooting. Despite leading the competition with 13.9 offensive rebounds per game, the team fell short on the boards against the home side, grabbing only 10. Caleb Homesley led the visitors with 20 points, followed by Malachi Flynn with 13, but it wasn’t enough to challenge Slask’s control.

Reflecting the loss, Coach Marko Barac said, ‘‘They were very successful one-on-one all game long, we couldn’t stay in front of the people that gave them confidence to shoot and to make some tough shots, because also they won the battle of rebounds. Everything that I was asking before the game, we couldn’t do it. Now it is up to me to analyze why did this happen.’’

Noah Kirkwood led Slask’s second-half charge
