Two teams who lost both games in the double round week will look for a return to winning ways as ASVEL (2-11) hosts Panathinaikos (6-7) at spanking-new LDLC Arena to close Thursday's action.
Game Notes: ASVEL vs. Panathinaikos

ASVEL playmaker Paris Lee, who has averaged 6.8 assists in the last four games, will look to dominate the backcourt against the team he represented last season. The Greens will hope Kendrick Nunn continues his excellent form after scoring 19, 13 and 24 points in the last three games, while Mathias Lessort is also in a sweet moment after scoring in double digits in six straight games. He faces a big battle with ASVEL's Joffrey Lauvergne, who is enjoying his best form of the season with averages of 18 points and 7.6 rebounds over the last five games.
