Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens finally collected its first road victory of 2025 by fending off LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne 93-96 to avoid a slip-up after the return from the national-team break. Panathinaikos led by as many as 17 points but had to sweat it out in the final minute to snap a three-game road losing streak for its first away win since December 27 and a 17-10 record.
Kendrick Nunn paced Panathinaikos with 24 points, Juancho Hernangomez had 15 points, Konstantinos Mitoglou poured in 14 points and Kostas Sloukas picked up 12 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists. Lorenzo Brown chipped in 8 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists after scoring 0 points in his last four games and six of the last eight games.
ASVEL dropped its fourth straight game for an 11-16 record – and a major setback in its hopes to fight for a play-in spot. Melvin Ajinca buried 6 three-pointers for 18 points for ASVEL, which had won its last two home games. Neal Sako had 17 points and Theo Maledon tallied 10 points and 11 assists in the loss.

Yurtseven posterizes Akele Motorola Magic Moment
Panathinaikos opened the game in style with a Wenyen Gabriel dunk. Brown added two baskets as the guests took a 2-10 lead. Paris Lee and Maledon both hit triples as ASVEL knotted the game at 12-12. Nunn sandwiched two triples between a three-pointer from Sloukas in a 2-13 surge, with the Greens going 14-25 ahead. The score was 16-25 after 10 minutes.
The surge continued in the second quarter, with Mitoglou hitting a triple and converting an and-one to make it 16-33. ASVEL needed nearly 2 minutes to score, and back-to-back three-pointers from Ajinca trimmed the gap to 24-35. Hernangomez answered with four points and Panathinaikos looked like it had regained control at 28-41. Ajinca hit again from deep, though, and Nando De Colo scored six points as the hosts reduced the deficit just four points at 44-48. Panathinaikos punched back with the final six points of the first half to lead 44-54 at the break.
ASVEL had the better start to the second half with the first five points to make it a five-point game. Cedi Osman delivered two scores at the other end and Panathinaikos was back ahead by 12 points, 50-62. A Jerian Grant triple increased the cushion to 15 points, 52-67. De Colo tried to get ASVEL back close with seven points, and it was 63-71 after 30 minutes.
ASVEL kept up the pressure with Shaquille Harrison’s three-point play and big dunk, followed by two more Ajinca triples to give the home side its first lead 76-75. After Grant and Ajinca swapped long balls, Panathinaikos held ASVEL to just one score in three minutes to lead 81-83. ASVEL’s Andre Roberson was called for an unsportsmanlike foul, resulting in two Sloukas free throws and a Nunn three-pointer for an 82-88 lead with 2 minutes left. De Colo and Harrison both drained triples to make things interesting, but Nunn converted four of four free throws and Sloukas hit twice from the line in the final 45 seconds to lock up the win.
