After scoring at least 16 points in eight consecutive games, Wade Baldwin will again attempt to lead the Maccabi offense against an equally inspirational Keenan Evans, who scored 18 in last week's loss to Olympiacos. Maccabi boasts the league's second-best offense, at 87.1 points per game, but leaned on excellent defense to secure a 70-78 road win in Kaunas in December. That was unusual because overall Maccabi ranks next-to-worst defensively, allowing 87.8 points per game, so Zalgiris will hope Evans and versatile power forward Rolands Smits can step up to take a much-needed road triumph.
