In a meeting of coaching masters as Pablo Laso welcomes Zeljko Obradovic, Bayern (2-5) is desperate to end a four-game losing slide as it takes on a Partizan (3-4) team that was boosted by last week's thrilling win over Fenerbahce.
Game Notes: Bayern vs. Partizan

Partizan leads the league in two-point shooting conversion (60.4%) and has youngster Tristan Vukcevic in great form since returning from injury, scoring 6 of his 7 field goal attempts in his two appearances. Bayern has the worst three-point shooting record in the competition, making just 27.5% of its attempts from beyond the arc, and will hope that shooters like Andreas Obst (6.1 ppg. on 26.3% 3FG) can rediscover their usual long-range accuracy.
