The 25-year-old guard led his team to a third consecutive home victory. Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens made its first visit to the PalaDozza this century on Friday night, facing a Virtus Bologna team that has been dominant at home to start the 2025-26 season. The historic arena, which served as Virtus’s primary venue from 1957 to 1996, has been used intermittently since 2017. This season, however, Virtus Arena was unavailable until now. But at the PalaDozza, the Italian side has been in impressive form, recently defeating Real Madrid, AS Monaco and now Panathinaikos.

In Round 6, Virtus defeated Panathinaikos 92-75, winning all four quarters. Coach Dusko Ivanovic’s squad controlled the game, particularly in the first half, leading 48-35 at halftime. Virtus outworked the Greens, dominating the boards with a 23–14 advantage in rebounds and recording 7 steals.

“It’s an easy game to analyze. Virtus played better throughout. They were tougher than us. We didn’t defend well and allowed every player to score easily,” said Panathinaikos assistant Christos Serelis after the game, as head coach Ergin Ataman was ejected early in the second half. “Our pick-and-roll defense and transition defense were very poor. We didn’t match their energy at all.”
