After suffering consecutive shock losses against low-ranked teams, Barcelona (10-5) will look to avoid another similar upset as it travels to Zalgiris (5-10).
Game Facts: Zalgiris vs. Barcelona
2023-24
3 Lesezeit
The Lithuanian team has lost four in a row, most recently Wednesday's nail-biter at Fenerbahce which saw a double-digit Zalgiris halftime lead squandered despite 16 points and 9 rebounds from ex-Barcelona forward Rolands Smits. Barca has now lost four of its last five roads games, averaging just 68.5 points in those defeats, and needs to improve its usually prolific long-range shooting after making just 6-of-24 three-pointers in Tuesday's loss to ALBA. Nico Laprovittola (15 points) was the only player to score in double digits in that defeat, so head coach Roger Grimau's squad needs a big improvement across the board.
