PAOK BC fined, to play one game behind closed doors next season

PAOK BC will serve a one-game stadium ban and pay a fine for disturbances during their playoff semifinal against Panathinaikos. The "Dikefalos tou Vorra" has concluded its current season and is already preparing for the next.

The club must play its first official game of the upcoming Stoiximan GBL season without fans. In addition to the stadium ban, PAOK was also fined 4,000 euros.

The disciplinary committee also imposed fines totaling 4,200 euros for various offenses, including offensive chants and the throwing of objects onto the court during the game against Panathinaikos AKTOR on May 30, 2026. However, PAOK was cleared of charges related to on-court incidents and offensive chants during the national anthem.

The penalty for playing behind closed doors will be executed on the next home game day after the decision is issued, unless the gap between the decision and the game is less than five days, in which case it will be served on the following game day. If the ban cannot be served during the current season for any reason, it will be carried over to the first home game of the next season.
