Panathinaikos will play in Nicosia and Heraklion for Euroleague

Euroleague Basketball and its Independent Disciplinary Judge have sanctioned Panathinaikos Athens with two closed-door home games in the forthcoming season. The impact of two games without fans for such a big club would be negative for Euroleague so the League came to an agreement with Panathinaikos BC. 

Panathinaikos will host Laboral Kutxa Vitoria (25 October - 2nd match day)  in Nicosia, Cyprus and Lokomotiv Kuban (7th November - 4th match day) in Heraklion, Crete. Both games with fans.
