On the back of Wednesday's emotional victory over Real Madrid, Barcelona (12-6) will seek to overcome another dangerous Spanish opponent with a visit from Baskonia (10-8).
Game Facts: Barcelona vs. Baskonia



There should be a big battle in the paint between two players who excelled earlier this week: Jan Vesely netted 28 points in El Clásico, while Chima Moneke earned co-MVP honors with 20 points and 13 rebounds to help down Panathinaikos. Baskonia turned on the style to thrash Barca 94-71 in Round 8 behind 26 points from Markus Howard, who will be eager to return to form after making just 5 of his 19 field-goal attempts in the last two games.
