Reigning champion Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens improved to 13-7 in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague and celebrated its fifth successive victory after overpowering Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade 96-84 on the back of a game-high 25 points from top scorer Kendrick Nunn and a majestic display from Jerian Grant.
With influential playmakers Lorenzo Brown and Kostas Sloukas sidelined, Grant pulled all the strings on offense as he racked up 14 points, 8 assists and 7 boards, propelling a smooth effort at both ends. Cedi Osman also stood out with arguably his best game of the season garnished by 18 points, Omer Yurtseven added 17 and Juancho Hernangomez amassed 15 to go with 8 rebounds.
At the other end, Sterling Brown stood out for Partizan with 23 points, Brandon Davis netted 19 and Iffe Lundberg scored 16, but the visitors missed a bigger input from their backcourt dynamos Carlik Jones and Duane Washington who scored a mere 4 points between them.
The visitors dropped to a 9-11 record and face an uphill battle to make the postseason after a lackluster display devoid of energy, having been outplayed in every department.

Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens-Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz | RS Round 17 Highlights | 2024-25 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague
A rout did not look on the cards for Partizan as the Serbian team raced into an early 2-8 lead but Panathinaikos soon beefed up its defense and never looked back after turning the tide with a 10-0 run, which resulted in a 23-13 lead at the end of the first quarter.
The trend continued in the second as the home team stayed in cruise control, with Nunn hitting mid-range jumpers from all over while Oman did a lot of damage from the perimeter. Crucially, Panathinaikos dominated the paint at both ends in the first half as the Greens racked up 10 offensive boards and 25 in total, highlighting the home team’s aggressive approach.
Partizan regained some composure and slashed the deficit to 62-56 late in the third quarter but Panathinaikos hit straight back with a vengeance to open up a 75-63 advantage ahead of the final 10 minutes, with Hernangomez hitting a buzzer-beating three from the corner to send the vociferous home fans into raptures.
Davies tried to keep Partizan afloat with clinical shooting as the visiting team closed the gap to 77-67 early in the fourth, but the writing was on the wall for the Serbian outfit after Panathinaikos romped away to 94-71 in the home stretch. Partizan salvaged some pride with a 0-13 run in the dying minutes, but it was too little too late against a rampant home team.
