Joventut Badalona head coach Carles Duran:
"We are not familiar with this format, but we have the will and ambition to play the best game possible. We know that winning lets us keep dreaming and losing kicks us out. I hope we are as competitive as we have been this season, knowing that Ulm is a high-scoring team with three American players that can score a lot. If we do not do things well, they will make it hard on us."
Joventut Badalona player Pau Ribas:
"They will come to play very motivated, they have ambitious players and it will be a game watched by everyone. We are favorites, we have to accept that role and play with confidence at home, but knowing that we have to do things very well if we want to go far, and that means winning this first game. We have not lost at home this season and we want it to stay that way."
