The Sports Judge of ESAKE has issued penalties following the events of Game 3 of the Basket League Finals between Panathinaikos and Olympiacos, held on Friday, June 6 at OAKA, along with the official complaints submitted by both clubs.

It was decided that neither Kendrick Nunn nor Evan Fournier would be suspended, allowing them to play in Game 4 of the Finals today.
