Montero Took Over ATHENS | Panathinaikos - Valencia | EuroLeague Basketball PLAYOFFS Valencia forced Game 5 by grabbing an 86-89 victory over Panathinaikos on Friday night at Telekom Center Athens. Despite losing both the first two games at home, the Spanish side bounced back with two straight wins in Greece to bring the playoff series back to Valencia. Following a morale-boosting victory in Game 3, the visitors hit the ground running, with Jean Montero netting 10 first-quarter points for a 15-26 lead after 10 minutes. Valencia maintained a double-digit advantage until the closing stages of the second quarter, when Cedi Osman bagged 10 straight points that cut the deficit to 37-44 at halftime and shifted the momentum. A tight third quarter saw both defenses up their game before Nunn took over with 8 points in a row for Panathinaikos’s first lead in the last two games, 51-50. Yet, Valencia fought back and took a 56-60 edge into the fourth, where the two teams engaged in a trade of blows that saw the hosts struggle to find their range from deep and the guests protect a narrow advantage to seal a third consecutive victory in Athens this season. Montero pulled off an extraordinary outing, recording 29 points, 7 rebounds, as many assists and 4 steals. Osman paced Panathinaikos with 26 points and Nunn added 19 in a losing effort.

⚾ GIANTS HIT HISTORIC LOW The San Francisco Giants are off to their worst start in franchise history, with a 14-23 record after losing to the San Diego Padres. The team's struggles have raised questions about their chances this season. There's no doubt about it: the system is blinking red out on the Golden Coast... and it's only early May. For the San Francisco Giants , that's been long enough to show that they came into 2026 outmatched and outgunned, as they lost once again on Wednesday to the San Diego Padres, 5-1. They are now 14-23 and trail even the lowly Colorado Rockies in the National League West Division. For a franchise that won three World Series in the 2010s, they are now historically bad; they recently concluded the organization's worst-ever April in its 144 years of existence. It’s been a mess of a season, writes, and the final two games of another lost series fit right in. Where do the Giants turn now?
