At the moment, the red-and-whites are 12th (13-16 record)

Compounded by a beautiful victory on the court of Fenerbahce, Olimpia is mathematically still in the running for a spot in the Euroleague playoffs. The Red and White currently have 13 wins and 16 losses. They are 12th, two wins away from eighth place (a position occupied by Baskonia with a 15-14 record).

In short, with five games left to play, AX would still have a chance to get into the top eight, provided they win all their contests and hope that someone ahead of them in the standings loses a few games. The first date not to miss will be Friday night with Olimpia taking on Bayern Munich at home. The Bavarians are officially out of the playoff race.
