Sportradar takes a deeper look at Zalgiris's excellence with the shot-clock running down

Stats review: How Zalgiris thrives on late-clock coolness

The five teams above the fray in the EuroLeague standings entering the week all notched victories in Round 9. [Zalgiris Kaunas](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/zalgiris-kaunas/zal/) was one of those teams, holding onto its spot atop the landscape with a late surge past a tough [Valencia Basket](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/valencia-basket/pam/) team at Zalgirio Arena. Scoring 7 points over three possessions with the shot clock under 4 seconds in the final 6 minutes, Coach Tomas Masiulis’s team delivered several deflating blows to the opposing defense under time pressure.

That has quietly been a key to Zalgiris's success all season. Not only has no team operated late into the shot clock more frequently than Zalgiris — a byproduct of the team's 18th-ranked pace — but no team has scored as efficiently as the Lithuanian side either. Zalgiris's 1.02 points per late clock possession would rank a remarkable third in the EuroLeague in overall half-court offensive efficiency; it is taking and making quality shots at an elite level even when it grinds down the clock.

A great deal of that success can be traced to its poise driving and kicking under pressure and its 45% three-point shooting with time winding down.  The collective coolness of this group — and especially that of [Sylvain Francisco](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/sylvain-francisco/007975/) and [Maodo Lo](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/maodo-lo/007032/) orchestrating things — has helped Zalgiris control the pace of games and been a valuable complement to its second-ranked defensive efficiency.

Being able to burn the clock and knock down shots has had pretty clear implications on the defensive end this season as three of the season’s four most efficient late clock offenses also rank among the four stingiest teams guarding in the open floor. Given that short, shot-clock possessions are converted for just 0.83 points per possession on average — down from 0.87 last year and well off the 1.01 points per possession teams are scoring on all other half-court possessions this year, being able to convert those shots not only demoralizes opposing defenses, but prevents them from playing with pace as well.

Among individual scorers, Francisco and Lo rank first and third in the EuroLeague in shot clock scoring respectively with Francisco’s 4.8 points per game sitting well ahead of his league-best 3.4 per game from last year, pretty comfortably the top mark of the last 15 years.  With Lo outpacing his mark from last season as well, that duo has changed the calculus for Zalgiris with their late-clock scoring thus far.

While [Tyson Carter](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/tyson-carter/011305/) of [Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/crvena-zvezda-meridianbet-belgrade/red/) has missed the last several games with respiratory issues, his 4.3 late-clock points per game would rank among the top handful of marks this decade. [Dwayne Bacon](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/dwayne-bacon/011286/) of [Dubai Basketball](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/dubai-basketball/dub/), [Carsen Edwards](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/carsen-edwards/011987/) of [Virtus Bologna](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/virtus-bologna/vir/), and [Sterling Brown](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/sterling-brown/012720/) of [Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/partizan-mozzart-bet-belgrade/par/) round out the next tier of scorers, with Edwards’s efficiency standing out among individual leaders. 

[Anadolu Efes Istanbul](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/anadolu-efes-istanbul/ist/) and [AS Monaco](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/teams/as-monaco/mco/) warrant mention as well, with both teams scoring at a well-above-average rate late in the clock, giving up under 10 points per game in transition defensively, and Monaco burning the candle from both ends, ranking sixth in transition scoring too. 

While the season is still extremely young, a lot of things have gone right for Zalgiris and how well its execution and shot-making under time pressure holds in the coming months could go a long way towards a return to the postseason following a two-year absence.

### [Anadolu Efes Istanbul 93-97 EA7 Emporio Armani Milan](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/game-center/2025-26/anadolu-efes-istanbul-ea7-emporio-armani-milan/E2025/87/)

In the first double-overtime game of the season, Milan edged out Efes 93-97 on Friday night. It is the third road win of the season for Milan, which improved to 4-5, while Efes lost its fourth straight game as a host to drop to a 3-6 record.

Milan led by 13 points early in the fourth quarter after a 0-16 run, but Efes rallied, and the hosts even had the final 2.7 seconds of regulation to win it. But, the game went into overtime, then Shavon Shields hit a tough three-pointer with 11.7 seconds left in the first extra session to force a second overtime. Shields opened the second extra period with his career-best sixth triple and Milan led the rest of the way.

Shields finished with 24 points on 6-for-8 three-point shooting, and Zach LeDay scored 25 points but did not play in overtime due to an injury. Quinn Ellis scored 14 points in a victory. For Efes, PJ Dozier netted a career-high 34 points, Nick Weiler-Babb scored 16 and Ercan Osmani collected 14 points and 7 rebounds in defeat.

### [Zalgiris Kaunas 86-77 Valencia Basket](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/game-center/2025-26/zalgiris-kaunas-valencia-basket/E2025/90/)

Sound long-range shooting saw Zalgiris overpower Valencia 86-77 as the Lithuanian side improved to 7-2 with a fourth straight win, while the Spanish outfit dropped to 5-4 after a titanic tussle in Kaunas. Sylvain Francisco paced Zalgiris on 15 points and 7 assists, Maodo Lo chipped in with 12 points while Moses Wright, and Azoulas Tubelis netted 11 each for the home side. Jaime Pradilla and Jean Montero led Valencia with 15 points apiece, Kameron Taylor scored 14 and Omari Moore added 11 for the visitors.

In a fast-paced and physical start, both teams gave as good as they got in a hectic first quarter with Zalgiris nosing ahead 18-17 after the opening 10 minutes as Dustin Sleva netted a sweet three-pointer at the buzzer to send a passionate home crowd into raptures. Roared on by the green-clad faithful in the stands, Zalgiris moved up a gear and surged 35-26 ahead on the back of lethal long-range shooting. Valencia fought hard to stay in touch and slashed its deficit to 38-25 by halftime, thanks to a four-point play from Montero.

The third quarter produced more tough basketball, as both sides found it difficult to score in the wake of aggressive defending. The lead changed hands several times before Lo sank a buzzer-beating triple to give the hosts a 61-58 lead ahead of the final 10 minutes. Galvanizes by a Moses Wright block on Omari Moore, Zalgiris pulled away to 67-60 early in the fourth and although Valencia fought tooth-and-nail to catch up, Lo put the game beyond the Spanish team’s reach when he drained a clutch triple with 44 seconds left on the clock

## Wednesday, November 5

### [Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade 86-68 Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/euroleague/game-center/2025-26/crvena-zvezda-meridianbet-belgrade-panathinaikos-aktor-athens/E2025/83/)

Crvena Zvezda enjoyed a morale-boosting 86-68 win over Panathinaikos in Wednesday evening’s solitary fixture to stretch its winning streak to seven games, improving to 7-2 (6-0 under Coach Obradovic) while Panathinaikos dropped to 5-4 after a largely lop-sided contest. Codi Miller-McIntyre paced Zvezda on 14 points, 9 boards and 7 assists, Chima Moneke racked up 14 points and 8 boards while Ognjen Dobric posted 10 points for the home team, which snapped its seven-game losing streak against Panathinaikos. Kostas Sloukas led the visiting team on 16 points and Cedi Osman added 14, but top scorer Kendrick Nunn netted a mere 6 points. 

In a bruising and physical contest, Zvezda made a bright start and stifled out the visitors with ironclad defense in the first quarter, carving out a 20-12 advantage after the opening 10 minutes. Panathinaikos was reduced to shooting 0 of 10 from downtown and committed 4 turnovers in the first quarter, while Zvezda made 9 of 12 from inside. Roared on by a fervent hone crowd, Zvezda caught fire in the second quarter as shots poured in from all angles. The home team romped away into a stunning 42-20 lead before the Greens finally got going, slashing their deficit to 46-32 at halftime after a dreadful first half in which they shot 5 of 20 from long range and committed 8 turnovers. 

The third quarter saw Zvezda hit top gear again as the home team held Panathinaikos to a grand total of just 1 point in the opening 6 minutes, while the home team hit nothing but net at the other end to carve out a massive 67-40 advantage ahead of the final 10 minutes. With a mountain to climb, the Greens launched a fierce onslaught and produced a 7-21 run, closing the gap to 74-61 midway through the fourth quarter. However, the visitors had left themselves too much work to do and Zvezda ran out a worthy winner to delight its faithful inside a jam-packed Belgrade Arena.
