Crvena zvezda mts returns from Athens empty-handed, as they got defeated by Panathinaikos on Friday evening. Nate Wolters made debut for the red & whites…

If Crvena zvezda mts had played the whole game like they played the 4th quarter, they would have had chance to stun mighty Panathinaikos. However, as they were down by 20+ points already in the first half, the Belgrade squad only managed to reduce the overall margin and to finish the match with an honorable defeat.

One of the highlights from this match is that Nate Wolters made his first minutes in the red & white jersey. American point guard showed some nice basketball skills, as he collected 8 points and 3 assists.

After 4 rounds in 2016/17 Euroleague season, Crvena zvezda mts have 2 wins and 2 defeats.
