Two teams on a very different path meet in Italy as struggling Milan (1-5) welcomes high-flying surprise package Valencia (5-1). The visitors rely on a team ethic and a strong defense, ranking second in the league with 70.8 points per game allowed. Chris Jones manages the Valencia offense with averages of 11.3 points and 4.7 assists. The fact that Milan's leading assist-maker is Shavon Shields, with just 3.7 per game, illustrates how much head coach Ettore Messina's men have struggled to find fluency during their four-game losing run. The hosts will look for its collection of big men including Johannes Voigtmann (9.5 ppg., 4.0 rpg.) to control the tempo against a confident visitor.
