Partizan NIS Belgrade has excelled in all hustle stats this season and needs to carry on doing that against a physical team in MoraBanc Andorra. Partizan leads the EuroCup in blocked shots (3.8 bpg.), is fourth in steals (8.3 spg.) and pulls down 11.2 offensive rebounds on average. Stopping former Partizan playmaker Codi Miller McIntyre should be one of the biggest keys to this game, as Andorra runs its offense through him. Partizan ranks fifth in scoring (84.6 ppg.) this season and should keep playing at a high rhythm to find open shots in transition.
Andorra comes off a home loss against Hamburg Towers in which not finding the right rhythm was key. Andorra only drew 16 fouls and went to the foul line 8 times. It needs to be more aggressive against Partizan in Belgrade. Miller-McIntyre should have extra motivation in his return to Aleksandar Nikolic Hall. Andorra relies on its physical frontcourt, led by Moussa Diagne and Babatunde Olumuyiwa, to stop Zach LeDay and Mathias Lessort around the basket. Avoiding turnovers (13.9 per game) should also give Andorra a better chance to win in the Serbian capital.
