O Panathinaikos saiu de Madri com vitória por 115 a 112 na prorrogação, no único jogo da Euroliga desta quarta-feira e na abertura da 10ª rodada, e a noite foi de Kendrick Nunn, que anotou 23 pontos no último quarto, marca recorde da competição.
O Real parecia capaz de virar no último período, até Nunn assumir. Seus lances livres colocaram os visitantes à frente faltando sete segundos (101-99), e Andres Feliz respondeu com uma bandeja para forçar os cinco minutos extras. Sem Facundo Campazzo e Theo Maledon, os donos da casa não conseguiram segurar o ritmo, e o Panathinaikos controlou a prorrogação.
Os 33 pontos de Nunn lideraram todos os pontuadores; Lessort contribuiu com 20 e Francisco com 18. Pelo Real, Feliz fez 27 pontos e seis assistências, Damian Jones marcou 15 e Alberto Abalde 13.
O resultado deixa o Panathinaikos com 8-2 na liderança da tabela, à frente do Olympiacos (7-2). O Real Madrid é o nono colocado, com 6-4.
