Overview

The Spanish side ended a poor run of road form by grabbing a battling win at Zalgiris last time out, propelled by constant perimeter threat Nico Laprovittola draining 4 three-pointers, while Monaco was relieved to end a two-game losing run by beating Bayern on the road thanks to a season-high 28 points from the lethal Mike James. The ability of Laprovittola and Tomas Satoransky to guard James will be crucial, while Monaco must also deal with Barca’s powerful inside threat of Jan Vesely – who scored 15 points on 6-of-7 field goal shooting at Zalgiris – and Willy Hernangomez, who averages 11.4 points and 4.6 boards per game.
