The game tipped off with Wade Baldwin back in the Maccabi starting lineup after coming back from a hamstring injury, while Ioannis Papapetrou was a starter for the Greens for the first time this season. Sloukas started the game with a layup to give him more points than he had in Game 3, when he was scoreless for the first time since Round 21 of the 2017-18 season. He scored the guests' first five points. The score was deadlocked 10-10 when Panathinaikos went on a 2-10 surge to pull ahead 12-20. Maccabi fought back thanks to the long ball with four three-pointers – two from John DiBartolomeo – and the home side led 29-26 after 10 minutes.
Maccabi twice pushed the advantage to five points, including 34-29, only to see the Greens go ahead 35-36. There was bad news for Maccabi, though, as Baldwin was forced to leave the game midway through the second quarter and did not return. Maccabi answered with the next five points but the rest of the second quarter was tight and Maccabi went into the break 50-49 ahead.
Papapetrou and Sloukas opened the second half with triples but Panathinaikos could not pull away, with Bonzie Colson hitting twice from deep to make it 63-63. Tamir Blatt’s second triple of the quarter put Maccabi back up 66-65. Panathinaikos answered with two three-pointers and a Sloukas three-point play had the guests ahead 68-74. And the score was 69-74 after 30 minutes.
Maccabi opened the fourth quarter with a 13-1 run for an 82-75 cushion. Panathinaikos was not done yet with two triples and closed to within 86-85 and two free throws by Sloukas and Mathias Lessort put the Greens back up 88-91 with under 2 minutes to play. Sloukas followed with a big jumper and Panathinaikos was up five points with 61 seconds remaining.
