Unbeaten Valencia (4-0) will aim to keep its offensive juggernaut rolling against the tough defense of Turk Telekom (3-1).
Game Notes and Facts: Turk Telekom vs. Valencia Basket



The host is looking to bounce back after suffering its first loss of the campaign in a narrow defeat at Bourg, and will again lean on the best defense in the league (66.5 points per game allowed). Turk Telekom does also need plenty of offense, though, so will hope for another strong game from Anthony Brown after he netted 20 points last week. Valencia averages a league-best 98.8 points based on sharing the ball (23.5 assists), with forward Semi Ojeleye on a hot streak after scoring 22 and 16 points in the last two games.
