Real Madrid clinched third place in the EuroLeague regular season on Thursday, defeating Crvena zvezda (Red Star Belgrade) 103–82 at Madrid's Movistar Arena to secure a playoff home-court advantage. The victory — their 18th at home this season, where they have lost just once — puts coach Sergio Scariolo's side in a strong position ahead of the playoffs, as historical data shows that 81% of teams with home-court advantage reach the Final Four. Facundo Campazzo starred in the win, even dedicating a basket with a wink to NBA star Luka Dončić, a lifelong Real Madrid fan watching from the stands alongside tennis legend Novak Djokovic.
