The Turkish team, which wants a fast response to last week's home loss against London, will have to find a way of slowing down a Paris offense that leads the league in scoring (101.1 ppg.) and PIR (120.7). TJ Shorts (7.9 apg.) and Nadir Hifi (17.4 ppg.) are the leaders for the French team, but it won't be easy for them to excel against a Besiktas team with the third-best defense in the competition, 73.9 points per game allowed. The physicality of Angel Delgado, who has two double-doubles in a row, will be vital for Besiktas's chances of victory.
