Maccabi Tel Aviv is currently hosting Panathinaikus as part of the 15th Euroleague class. The Yellows, who just returned from Russia yesterday after a foreign win over Zenit San Petersburg and hold a 4:10 balance at the senior onshore plant, will try to outlast Rick Pitino's high-quality team (sixth place with a 5: 9 record).

The Yellows will also miss Omri Caspi, Nate Walters, Tariq Black and the injured John Dibertolomeo tonight. Arkon Jackson, the new coordinator signed on Monday, will join the roster over the next week.

On the flip side, Panathinaikos recently returned Rick Pitino to stand on the lines and enjoy positive momentum. The Greeks boast of some familiar names that came across the sea. Tyaris Rice and Dashon Thomas, both former champions of Maccabi uniforms, are a significant factor in the team, which is already staring into fourth place.
