Maccabi Tel Aviv is on a roll.
With Lonnie Walker back in the lineup, Oded Kattash’s team secured its fourth consecutive EuroLeague victory, defeating Monaco on the road 91–86.
Returning after last playing in Round 19, Walker led Maccabi in scoring with 18 points, while Roman Sorkin and Jaylen Hoard added 15 points each. Oshae Brissett contributed 12 points for the winning side.
For Monaco, who fielded 11 players, Jaron Blossomgame stood out with 25 points and seven rebounds. Alpha Diallo followed with 19 points, while Elie Okobo and Matthew Strazel chipped in 10 points apiece. Nikola Mirotic missed the game due to injury, head coach Vassilis Spanoulis confirmed at the postgame press conference.
Maccabi assumed control as early as the first quarter, winning the opening period 30–17, and maintained the lead until the fourth, when Monaco briefly went in front. However, Kattash’s players reacted quickly, regained the advantage, and held on until the final buzzer, improving their record to 14–15 and keeping their Play-In hopes alive.
