The winner of this game will become the first team from Group B to qualify for the playoffs, while the losing side could potentially back in on Wednesday, depending on other results. A superb performance from Isiaha Mike (28 points, 8 rebounds) was the inspiration for Bourg's latest high-scoring triumph at Cluj, while Gran Canaria needs to rediscover its offensive production after being held to a season-low 76 points in last week's loss to Trento. Only Nico Brussino, with 17 points, was able to reach double digits in that game and he will be a key figure again as the Spanish team looks for a victory that would also secure head-to-head advantage in the race for the top spot in the group.
Frederic Fauthoux, Bourg head coach
"We will welcome the best team in EuroCup, it's a big shock before winter break"
Axel Julien, Bourg guard
"It's quite simply the biggest match of the EuroCup season. The first who faces the second who has a revenge to take. We are two teams with opposite dynamics."
