Game Notes: ASVEL vs. Baskonia

The hosts have won two of their three games under Gianmarco Pozzecco, most recently downing ALBA on the road behind another great performance from Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, who averages 18.7 points in the last three outings. Dusko Ivanovic's Baskonia, meanwhile, made it three wins in a row with a majestic 94-71 victory over Barcelona. Tadas Sedekerskis continued his great form with 9 points and 12 rebounds, while Codi Miller-McIntyre gave his best performance in a Baskonia uniform by pairing 20 points with 7 assists.
