Basketballghana.com can report Ghana Forward Ben Bentil is in line to feature in the Greek Derby in the latest round of games in the 2020-2021 EuroLeague Basketball Championship tonight.
Panathinaikos takes on Olympiakos at 19:00 GMT with Bentil expected to line up for the Greens of Panathinaikos in the most eye catching encounter on the fixture list.
Bentil goes into this game on the back of a strong performance in a 78-80 loss to Promitheas in the Greek Super League this past weekend.
The former Dallas Mavericks player scored 12 points in 13 minutes off the bench in the loss which was Panathinaikos’ second of the season in the domestic league.
While the Athens based club leads the domestic league it has generally struggled in Europe as Panathinaikos ranks 15th on the 18 team league standings with eight wins and 14 losses.
Olympiakos on the other hand, has 11 wins and 12 losses and ranks 11th in the EuroLeague; Bentil has been more involved since Oded Kattash was named Head Coach last earlier this year.
