Wednesday's opening tip-off will see Prometey (7-7) attempt to protect its place in the all-important top six with a visit from Wolves (5-9), which also has postseason hopes after ending a six-game losing streak last week.

The power of Ondrey Balvin helps make Prometey the best rebounding and shot-blocking team in the competition (39.6 rpg., 3.9 bpg.) and Wolves will look to overcome that with the help of Rasheed Sulaimon, who scored 30 points in a Round 6 win over Prometey, 85-71, and made a welcome return from injury last week.
Ronen Ginzburg, Prometey head coach
"There are four games left and we have to get some wins. The Wolves also have ambitions. Of course, they are a good team. They play with a full roster now, they have a lot of new players in the team also. We should play like we did before we did before the break - with ambition, energy and being aggressive."
Ondrej Balvin, Prometey player
"We all know what we are playing for. This is an important game to get to the playoffs, to get more in our hands. I think it will be aggressive basketball form both teams. Our game there was not the best one, but since then I think we started turning the tide a bit for us and I hope we can stay in that path."
