The Euroleague schedule on 2026-10-16 delivered six games and a balanced split between home and road winners. Olympiacos claimed the night’s highest-scoring result with a 105-100 win at Barcelona, while Anadolu Efes handled Zalgiris Kaunas 85-70 and Hapoel Tel-Aviv beat Panathinaikos 91-81 away from home.
Home teams still had their share of control. Besiktas beat Bayern 95-87, Crvena zvezda defeated Paris 90-81, and Virtus Bologna held off Baskonia 86-78. The margin profile across the slate was tight enough to keep most matchups competitive, but the road wins by Olympiacos, Anadolu Efes and Hapoel Tel-Aviv gave the night its sharper edge.
Olympiacos Outlasts Barcelona in the Night’s Top Scoring Game
Olympiacos beat Barcelona 105-100 in the only game on the slate in which both teams reached triple digits. The result stood apart from the rest of the night because no other winning team scored more than 95 points and no other losing team reached 90.
For Olympiacos, winning at Barcelona while allowing 100 points required sustained shot-making and late-game scoring stability. Barcelona’s offense generated enough production to win many Euroleague games, but Olympiacos matched that pace and finished five points clear in the highest-total contest of the evening.
Anadolu Efes Controls Zalgiris Kaunas
Anadolu Efes recorded the largest win of the night, beating Zalgiris Kaunas 85-70. The 15-point margin was the only double-digit road victory on the schedule.
The final score reflected a game in which Anadolu Efes created separation without needing the scoring extremes seen in Barcelona. Holding Zalgiris Kaunas to 70 points gave Anadolu Efes the clearest defensive result among the three road winners.
Hapoel Tel-Aviv Wins at Panathinaikos
Hapoel Tel-Aviv beat Panathinaikos 91-81, adding another road result to a slate defined by away teams winning half of the games. Hapoel Tel-Aviv reached 91 points, the third-highest winning total of the night behind Olympiacos and Besiktas.
Panathinaikos scored 81 points, but Hapoel Tel-Aviv’s offensive output created a 10-point gap. Among the six games, it was one of two road wins decided by double digits.
Besiktas, Crvena zvezda and Virtus Bologna Hold Serve at Home
Besiktas beat Bayern 95-87 in the highest-scoring home win of the night. Besiktas’ 95 points were second only to Olympiacos among all teams on the slate, and the eight-point margin kept Bayern within range without changing the final outcome.
Crvena zvezda defeated Paris 90-81, matching Hapoel Tel-Aviv’s 10-point-adjacent control with a nine-point home win. Crvena zvezda reached 90 points, joining Besiktas, Hapoel Tel-Aviv, Barcelona and Olympiacos as the teams to hit at least 90 on the night.
Virtus Bologna beat Baskonia 86-78 in the lowest-scoring winning performance among the three home victories. The eight-point margin matched Besiktas’ win over Bayern, and Virtus Bologna held Baskonia below 80 points in a result shaped more by containment than scoring volume.
