Overview

All eyes will be on Mike James as Monaco's star guard hunts down the 29 points that would make him the competition's all-time leading scorer, but another combo guard will also look to have a say as Nico Laprovittola looks to extend Barça's six-game home winning run. Monaco earned a convincing home victory, 91-71, when the teams met in December, led by 19 points on 4 of 6 three-point shooting from the all-action Alpha Diallo. Barca had more turnovers (14) than assists (13) in that game, and will look for Tomas Satoransky to provide more backcourt control this time around.
