ISTANBUL (AA) - The Turkish Airlines EuroLeague basketball match between Panathinaikos OPAP Athens and Zalgiris Kaunas has been suspended due to poor weather, the league confirmed on Tuesday

"The Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season Round 18 between Panathinaikos OPAP Athens and Zalgiris Kaunas that was rescheduled to be played on Wednesday, January 26, has been suspended due to the urgent measures undertaken by the Greek government following the bad weather conditions that the Greek capital has experienced since last Monday," EuroLeague said in a statement.

It added that further information would be released as warranted in the coming days.

A severe snowstorm swept across Greece on Monday, blanketing Athens and causing traffic chaos and power cuts in several areas, while authorities cancelled school classes.
