My Prediction
Monaco Basket by 3Panathinaikos, coming in at the third spot in Euroleague standings, is waiting to shake Monaco's basket on their home turf. Both sporting a stout 20-12 regular season record, it's as close as a hand in a glove, folks.
Panathinaikos has some stellar performers up its sleeve. A light bulb moment last season for Kendrick Nunn saw him amass 20.3 points per game with a regular scoop of rebounds and assists. But, his performance isn't a lonely star in a dark night. It's got company - the ever-reliable, Juancho Hernangomez pulling down 7.2 rebounds per game in the last month, followed closely by the remarkable Kostas Sloukas. Hold your horses, we aren't done. Dinos Mitoglou and a handful of others are more than ready to stir the pot.
On the flip side, Monaco Basket has its own armada led by Mike James, averaging 19.4 points per game in the last month, and supported by the likes of Daniel Theis and Elie Okobo - reliable contributors both off and on the scoreboard. Enough to make anyone sweat from the brow, isn't it?
Now, sit tight and buckle up, because looking back at their head-to-head showdowns, it's like watching a soap opera. Monaco has taken one, lost one, and managed a tie. Sounds like the plot of a thriller?
Recent performances glance Monaco's way, as they managed to wrestle victories from the jaws of some tough opponents. Panathinaikos? Well, they stumbled against Paris but rallied back against Alba Berlin, showing that they don't go down without a fight.
So, who slides into victory avenue? The Greek giants or the Monacan mammoths?
