Olympiacos hold their nerve and keep dreaming big

Olympiacos Stella Rossa EuroLeague

It’s win No. 18 in 27 for the hosts, who stay in the chase near the EuroLeague summit

At the SEF, Olympiacos edged Crvena Zvezda 92-86 in a tense, detail-decided battle. Fournier and Vezenkov delivered in the key stretches, while Dorsey remained a steady scoring threat all night long.

Olympiacos got contributions across the board: Fournier took over in the second quarter, Vezenkov stuffed the stat sheet again, and the team managed the pressure possessions with composure to protect the lead.

The defining moment was Vezenkov’s off-balance three for 88-81 at 39:00, a late-clock shot that swung the finish. Crvena Zvezda (now 16-12) stayed close and tested the hosts, but couldn’t find the one big make at the end.

Vezenkov finished with 23 points and 8 rebounds, Dorsey with 17, and Fournier with 18. The Red Star’s usual Nwora’s 21 points and 6 rebounds were not enough.
