ratiophatm Ulm will host Umana Reyer Venice on opening night in Germany. This will be the fifth time that these two sides meet in the competition and they have split the previous four with each team holding home court.
Ulm welcomes Reyer in opener



After a solid season in which Ulm managed to knock out Joventut Badalona in the first round of the elimination rounds, the German squad starts anew with a new coach, Anton Gavel. Only four players stayed from last season also, so new faces like Josh Hawley, Juan Nunez and Sagaba Konate will have to find their chemistry right away in a demanding season that will start against one of the strongest teams in the EuroCup.
Reyer also just kept a few pieces from last year's puzzle, but it managed to gather a solid group that, with the right chemistry, could go all the way. Jayson Granger, Allerik Freeman and Riccardo Moraschini are expected to bring the talent and experience from the EuroLeague level, while others like Marco Spissu, Derek Willis, Mitchell Watt and Jeff Brooks will round out a strong squad that may turn many heads this season.
