The black & white troops from Belgrade failed in attempt of breaking their losing streak in EuroCup. This Tuesday evening, Partizan NIS got defeated by Lietuvos Rytas on the road, so they still have just one win in the competition.
Still, it must be mentioned that Partizan NIS played this game without two very important players – Novica Veličković and Nigel Williams-Goss – who obviously got some time to rest in front of a very important match against Cedevita next weekend in ABA League.
Also, the good thing is that despite this defeat, Partizan NIS still have chances to reach the next stage of EuroCup.
