Nikola Mirotic's Potential Return for Monaco vs. Panathinaikos Euroleague Clash
AS Monaco, having stabilized its finances thanks to support from the Monegasque state and paid its €1.92 million luxury tax, is now confirmed to participate in the Betclic Elite playoffs.
Tonight, the Roca Team faces Panathinaikos in a crucial Euroleague matchup. Both teams, along with Zalgiris Kaunas, Crvena Zvezda (Red Star), and FC Barcelona, are tied for 6th place with identical 19-14 records, with only five games remaining in the regular season, making this a pivotal game for playoff positioning.
Monaco will still be without Mike James due to a hamstring injury, though he is expected to return soon, possibly Sunday or next week. Daniel Theis is also unavailable for family reasons. However, there is hope for the potential return of Nikola Mirotic. The Spanish international, who has been sidelined with a plantar arch injury, has been training with the team for several days, and a decision on his participation will be made this very morning. This season, Mirotic has averaged 10.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in 19 minutes per game over 28 appearances.
On the opposing side, Panathinaikos will feature Mathias Lessort, who is averaging 7.3 points and 4.3 rebounds in 20 minutes per game in his fourth Euroleague season appearance.
