After becoming the first team to secure a spot in EuroLeague playoffs a couple of weeks ago, Olympiacos became the first club to secure a home-court advantage with a 81-55 win against LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne.

5th-placed Fenerbahce could still reach 22 wins, but Olympiacos won both games against the Turkish powerhouse, securing a tie-break in case both teams would have the same number of wins.

Now, Olympiacos will try to secure a no. 1 seed. According to Darius Garuolis data, the Reds have the easiest remaining schedule, as the Greek powerhouse will face Panathinaikos, Crvena Zvezda, and Baskonia in their three remaining games.

In Wednesday's win over ASVEL, Thomas Walkup made the biggest impact, finishing the game with 11 points (4/6 2PT, 1/1 3PT), 7 assists, 2 rebounds, 3 steals, 2 turnovers, and 17 PIR.
