The early game on Wednesday will see Promotey Slobozhanske take on Group A leader Frutti Extra Bursaspor at Arena Riga in the capital of Latvia. Promotey (1-1) handled 7Bet Lietkabelis Panevezys in its home opener in Round 1 but had a rough time in Italy last week where it fell to Grmani Brescia 104-70. DJ Stephens (14 ppg., 9 rpg.) has stood out for Prometey so far alongside Caleb Agada (13 ppg., 5 apg., 2.5 apg.) and Gian Clavell (13 ppg.).
Promotey and unbeaten Bursaspor to clash in Riga



Bursaspor (1-1) has fended off some injuries to start the season on the right foot with victories over Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana and Joventut Badalona. Help is on the way with the signing of swingman Sindarius Thornwell last week. Onuralp Bitim (17 ppg.), Derek Needham (16 ppg., 4.5 apg.) and Yigitcan Saybir (15 ppg., 5.5 rpg.) have shouldered much of the weight so far this season and Ahmet Duveriolgu (9 ppg., 8 rpg.) has been a force in the paint.

Among the deciding factors in this game could be Promotey’s three-point shooting and Bursaspor’s rebounding. Promotey is shooting 23.7% from downtown, which is the second-lowest in the EuroCup, and it will need to do better against a Bursaspor defense that has allowed just 72.5 points per game. Bursaspor has outrebounded its opponents by 7 per game so far and Promotey has been outrebounded 6.5; if that trend continues it bodes well for the visitors.
