Maccabi (4-3) welcomes Fenerbahce (5-3) to Belgrade as both teams look to rebound from Round 8 defeats.
Game Notes: Maccabi vs. Fenerbahce

Maccabi was edged out by Olympiacos while Fenerbahce was blown away by Zvezda. Dimitris Itoudis' men only scored 56 points in that game, with just Nigel Hayes-Davis (12 points) getting into double digits, but the possible return of Nick Calathes and Marko Guduric - who were in the roster but didn't play at all on Tuesday - could give the offense a crucial boost. Maccabi needs to improve its perimeter shooting after making just 6 of its 30 three-point attempts against Olympiacos, with backcourt duo Lorenzo Brown and Tamir Blatt going for a combined 1-of-13 from deep. Maccabi hopes to get back Wade Baldwin after he missed Tuesday's game due to illness.
