The Turkish team has lost five in a row on the road, but came close to success at Baskonia in Round 12 through a powerful inside game, with 22 of 38 two-pointers converted including 4 of 5 by Johnathan Motley. That kind of effectiveness will be important against a Barca team led by the paint presence of Willy Hernangomez and former Fenerbahce star Jan Vesely, who respectively scored 15 and 13 in Wednesday's defeat at Virtus. Fenerbahce point guard Nick Calathes is another player going up against his old team, and his battle with Tomas Satoransky for backcourt control could be pivotal.
