Barcelona wins in Piraeus with impressive final rally

A 18-2 run to end the game and prevail over Olympiacos for Grimau's side, who wins 77-68

Barcelona pulls off a great escape in Piraeus after an impressive final push, having turned a 66-59 deficit into a well-deserved road win against the shorthanded hosts. A valiant effort from Olympiacos which missed several key players, but the home team simple ran out of steam in the last few minutes. It’s 2 of 2 for Barca after its opening home win against Efes and a setback for Olympiacos, following its dramatic overtime win at archrival Panathinaikos in the opening round. Nicolas Laprovittola had 17 points, 7 assists for Barcelona while Alex Abrines added 16 points with 5 three-pointers.
