Rebounding could make the difference for Buducnost
Buducnost is one of three teams with identical records between third and fifth place in Group B and only two of them can clinch home-court advantage for the eighthfinals, which raises the stakes for Buducnost. The Montenegrin champs have been an above-average rebounding team this season; they have taken 1.8 more rebounds per game than their opponents. Bourg, in contrast, has taken the fewest rebounds in the league (29.3 rpg.) and the fewest offensive boards (7.5 orpg.), while being outrebounded by 4.6 per game. If the hosts control the glass, Justin Cobbs, DJ Seeley and Kendrick Perry can make things happen in transition, which benefits Buducnost greatly.

Courby goes from defense to offense! Magic Moment
Bourg must win the three-point race
Bourg is the top three-point shooting team in the league, shooting 41.0% from downtown for the season and making more than 40% of its tries both at home and on the road and in both wins and losses. However, it’s three-point defense has been worrisome, especially on the road, where it has seen opponents shoot an otherworldly 45.0% from downtown. Bourg’s perimeter defenders cannot allow Buducnost to snipe freely, even though Buducnost is among the weaker three-point shooting teams, having made a EuroCup-low 6.0 threes per game at 31.0%. If Bourg makes its threes and limits Buducnost, its chances to win rise.
