The Euroleague Basketball Regular season comes to an end with round ten, the first night of which took place on Thursday.
In Group A, CSKA Moscow used their balanced offence and solid defence to hold off Partizan NIS Belgrade 73-62, but both teams had reasons to be joyous in the Serbian capital.
The victory lifts CSKA into second place in Group A with a 7-3 record and Partizan also advanced to the Top 16 thanks to Fenerbahce Ulker Istanbul's win over Nanterre.
Fenerbahce controlled the game from the first quarter against Nanterre, eventually running out 76-95 winners, claiming first place in Group A, while also eliminating Nanterre in the process.
Fenerbahce finished the regular season with their best-ever record, 8-2, while Nanterre ended their Euroleague debut with a 3-7 record and fifth place.
A fast-paced game saw hosts FC Barcelona take a 96-77 home win over Kiev.
Barcelona end the regular season with the same 7-3 record as CSKA, and Kiev, who will now continue the season in the Eurocup, end last in Group A with a 2-8.
In Group B, Real Madrid finished the regular season undefeated by thrashing Anadolu Efes Istanbul 86-61 in Istanbul.
Madrid finished first in Group B with a perfect 10-0 record. Efes ended the stage with a 4-6 record and went through because of Brose Baskets Bamberg's defeat to Zalgiris Kaunas also in Group B.
