A big battle between two ambitious teams sitting a victory apart will take place in the principality as Monaco (8-6) welcomes Panathinaikos (7-7).
Game Facts: Monaco vs. Panathinaikos

The host will look for league-leading scorer and former Panathinaikos hero Mike James (19.4 ppg.) to extend his 14-game streak of double-digit scoring, but Greens' leader Kostas Sloukas will hope to repeat the form (18 points, 12 assists vs. ASVEL) that saw him earn last week's MVP award. Kendrick Nunn is also in good form for Panathinaikos, with an average of 17.3 points in his last three games, while Monaco has Elie Okobo on his best form this season thanks to 12 and 14 points in the last two outings.
