Peristeri prevailed over Panathinaikos with an 82-78 victory in Round 11 of the Greek League, ending the Greens’ streak. On top of that, Panathinaikos saw Nick Calathes exiting the court in the middle of the second period with pain on his left knee, though further evaluation showed that he is cleared and able to join the team’s Monday practice.
William Hatcher paced the winning side with 14 points, while Ioannis Papapetrou posted 15 points for Panathinaikos. Papapetrou also exited with pain on his thumb, but the medical evaluation showed no damage done for him either.
After 11 weeks of action, Panathinaikos still leads the standings with 10-1, Promitheas and Peristeri share an 8-3 record, while AEK has a 7-4 record.
