Panathinaikos, led by coach Zeljko Obradovic, is preparing for a challenging EuroLeague matchup against Hapoel Tel Aviv. The Greek team has maintained an undefeated record of 5-0 in the EuroLeague this season, winning their games by an average of 20 points. However, Obradovic will have to contend with several player absences. Forward Nikos Rogavopoulos, who averages 8.3 points per game, is out due to injury. This absence is not expected to significantly weaken the team, given the presence of other strong forwards like Nigel Hayes-Davis, Guerschon Yabusele, and Juancho Hernangomez.

In addition to Rogavopoulos, guards Kendrick Nunn and Kostas Sloukas will also miss the game. Isaac Bonga is also doubtful 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 that will qualify directly for the playoffs. He included Panathinaikos, Real Madrid, Olympiacos, Hapoel Tel Aviv, Fenerbahce, and Dubai in his list.
