Partizan and Fenerbahce face off in Round 6 of the EuroLeague, tipping off at 19:45 CET. The Turkish side enters the clash with a 4-1 record, while the Serbian outfit stands at 3-2.

The Black-and-Whites head into Istanbul following a loss to Panathinaikos, whereas the hosts are coming off a commanding victory over Zalgiris.

Perhaps even more concerning than that defeat—coming against what is arguably the best team in Europe right now—was the situation surrounding Lamar Stevens. A stomach bug had put his travel availability in jeopardy ahead of this road fixture.

He ultimately made the trip with the team, but his readiness remained in question until the last minute. Now, positive news has arrived: the Black-and-Whites' newcomer will be in the lineup.
