Hapoel Tel Aviv is preparing for a challenging EuroLeague matchup against undefeated Panathinaikos Athens at OAKA Arena, following their victory over Besiktas. Panathinaikos, with a perfect 5-0 record in the EuroLeague this season, has won their previous five games by an average of 20 points and aims to extend their winning streak against the Israeli team.
Panathinaikos coach Zeljko Obradovic will be without forward Nikos Rogkavopoulos, who averages 8.3 points per game. However, the team boasts a strong roster with notable forwards like Nigel Hayes-Davis, Guerschon Yabusele, and Juancho Hernangomez, potentially mitigating Rogkavopoulos's absence.
In addition to Rogkavopoulos, Kendrick Nunn and Kostas Sloukas will also miss the game. Isaac Bonga is also expected to be sidelined due to a hand injury that kept him out of their previous game against Partizan Belgrade.
Meanwhile, Kendrick Nunn expressed his predictions for the top six teams to qualify directly for the playoffs, including Panathinaikos, Real Madrid, Olympiacos, Hapoel Tel Aviv, Fenerbahce, and Dubai.
