Guerschon Yabusele accused some Partizan fans of crossing the line after Panathinaikos’ 72-55 road win in Belgrade. The French forward said he enjoys hostile atmospheres but claimed objects were thrown at him and that he was spat on after leaving the court.
“I never dodge those atmospheres. When you’re a competitive basketball player, being in a gym with 15,000 people against you is something I enjoy,” Yabusele told Sportal.gr after Panathinaikos improved to 5-0 in EuroLeague.
According to Yabusele, the situation changed as he walked off the floor: “They started throwing stuff at me and spitting in my face. Everybody knows, but nobody does anything.” Nigel Hayes-Davis also praised Belgrade Arena while stressing that hostile environments must remain safe and free of thrown objects or spitting.
Yabusele finished with 7 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists in 20 minutes. His history with Partizan also includes the 2023 playoff brawl, when he was suspended for five games following the altercation involving Dante Exum.
