All 18 EuroLeague teams have been rated by Eurohoops based on status, dynamics, form and the significance of their results.
#18 ZALGIRIS KAUNAS
Previous Ranking: 18 (-)
Record: 3-13
Home: 3-5
Away: 0-8
Offense-Defense: 70.4-80.4
Winning three of the last seven games has not been enough for Zalgiris to get unstuck from the bottom. The Lithuanian champion has ranked last since Round 3 and has not exceeded 17th place this season.

#17 PANATHINAIKOS OPAP ATHENS
Previous Ranking: 13 (-4)
Record: 4-13
Home: 4-4
Away: 0-9
Offense-Defense: 72.5-79.1
Panathinaikos has been 17th since Round 8. Irregular improvements have been the main highlights so far. It can’t get much better without a win on the road and it is still possible to fall further down the table.

#16 MACCABI PLAYTIKA TEL AVIV
Previous Ranking: 9 (-7)
Record: 7-11
Home: 5-3
Away: 2-8
Offense-Defense: 77.6-78.7
Not too long ago, Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv was fourth in the standings. After eight losses in a row, the team sits 12th. Being unable to win a game since November 17 seems to have shifted issues from the court to the mental side of the game. It is getting complicated.

#15 ALBA BERLIN
Previous Ranking: 14 (-1)
Record: 6-11
Home: 4-5
Away: 2-6
Offense-Defense: 75.6-81.1
Despite ending its recent slump with a win against AS Monaco, ALBA has slipped in the standings. On the plus side, six teams are currently one win away. Taking it up a notch is necessary to recover lost ground.

#14 AS MONACO
Previous Ranking: 12 (-2)
Record: 7-11
Home: 5-4
Away: 2-7
Offense-Defense: 81.4-83.1
Beating Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv could have meant a lot more. However, the second win in the last nine games merely retained the 14th spot. AS Monaco has not budged from the season-low 14th place since Round 14.

#13 CRVENA ZVEZDA MTS BELGRADE
Previous Ranking: 16 (-3)
Record: 7-11
Home: 5-4
Away: 2-7
Offense-Defense: 72.2-73.7
Its recent losses against Anadolu Efes and Zenit St Petersburg felt cruel. Only a couple of wins outside the playoffs zone, Crvena Zvezda sitting at 13th seems much farther away than the real distance.
