Panathinaikos earned an 87–79 EuroLeague win over Monaco, controlling key stretches to secure an eight-point victory. The home side balanced efficient scoring with timely stops, while Monaco leaned heavily on individual shot-making to keep the game within reach. T.J. Shorts led Panathinaikos with 21 points, setting the tone offensively and providing steady creation when Monaco threatened to close the gap. Panathinaikos also got important secondary production from K. Faried (13 points) and N. Rogkavopoulos (11), helping them maintain separation across the middle quarters. Monaco’s best offensive weapon was James Mike, who finished with a game-high 25 points. Alpha Diallo added 12, but Monaco’s supporting scoring was limited, and the visitors couldn’t consistently generate enough stops to flip momentum late. By the final minutes, Panathinaikos’ ability to answer Monaco runs with composed half-court execution proved decisive. The result gives Panathinaikos a confidence-boosting win, while Monaco will look to diversify its scoring and tighten late-game defense in upcoming EuroLeague fixtures.
