Panathinaikos, a few days after qualifying for the EuroLeague Final Four, welcomed Prometheus to OAKA in a postponed match between the top six places in the Basketball League and without much effort, prevailed 90-82.
After the match, Ergin Ataman spoke about the injuries to Juancho Hernangomet and Costa Sluka and expressed his confidence in the ability of the international and Spanish goalkeeper to reach the Euroleague 4 Final.
“Slokas and Huacho will 100% play in the Final Four,” said Ergin Ataman, among others.
In detail, what he said:
“It was difficult to find motivation in this match, because the result of the match would not have changed anything about our position in the standings. We are first. And of course because we had a big win over Maccabi. We played hard out of respect for the nearly 10,000 fans who came to the stadium. It was a game Good because we used all our players and some were positive, others were not. Anyway, we won.
Sloukas and Juancho will 100% play in the Final Four. They are recovering. We have 2 weeks to go and the doctors told me it takes 1 week to 10 days to heal. It’s good for them. They will be rested and fresh for the Final Four. It’s a good question (pg. about whether there are similarities to the qualifier he had with Eaves in the Final Four), but now is not the time to answer it. This press conference is for the championship match. I think next week we’ll have a media day for the Final Four. “And then we can comment on everything, because this is a big story.”
