A key game in the race for the playoffs will see Aris (2-2) host Cluj (3-1) for what could be a low-scoring encounter. Cluj gained its three victories by allowing its opponents to score no more than 74 points, while Aris’s two-game winning run is based on a defense which allowed just 63 and 66 points. A key matchup comes in the backcourt, where Roberto Gallinat averages 17.2 points for Aris and scored 23 last week, while DJ Seeley averages 16.5 points for Cluj but was restricted to just 8 points last week after getting into foul trouble.
