Dubai Basketball and Crvena zvezda Meridianbet both scored huge wins in EuroLeague this Tuesday evening.

Dubai Basketball delivered one of the most memorable performances of the season, defeating Zalgiris Kaunas on the road - 77:65 - in Round 36 of the EuroLeague, after an incredible 4th quarter comeback.

The situation looked extremely difficult for Dubai heading into the final quarter as they were down by 14 points after 30 minutes - 39:53 - and the gap even increased to 15 early in the 4th period (41:56). However, what followed was nothing short of spectacular.

Dubai Basketball completely turned the game around by scoring 38 points in the final quarter, while at the same time locking down defensively and allowing just 12 points to the hosts. Possession by possession, they chipped away at the deficit before taking full control in the closing minutes to seal a massive road win - 77:65.

With this win, Dubai Basketball improve their record to 19-17 and remain firmly in the race for a spot in the Top 10 as the regular season approaches its final stretch.

Meanwhile in Belgrade, Crvena zvezda Meridianbet returned to the winning track in the EuroLeague by defeating Paris Basketball at home - 94:81 - in Round 36, showing character and quality after last round’s defeat against arch rivals Partizan Mozzart Bet.

The red-and-whites entered this game highly motivated to respond, and they did exactly that with a strong all-around performance. While the first half saw both teams exchanging blows, it was in the second half where Zvezda made the crucial difference.

Led by their trademark defense, Crvena zvezda Meridianbet completely slowed down one of the most potent offensive teams in the competition. The hosts allowed just 27 points in the second half, taking full control of the game and gradually building a comfortable lead.

This win represents an important step forward in the race for the postseason, as Crvena zvezda Meridianbet improved their record to 20-16 and strengthened their position in the battle for a place in the Top 10.
