Postponed game for the 5th game of the euroleague is held in Germany where Alba welcomes Baskonia.
Alba comes from a defeat that lost 71-74 to Zalgiris. This was the third in a row for the German team that the many absences took it out of rhythm. Nevertheless, he did not stop fighting the games, showing a great fighting spirit with the former "pangites" now taking more opportunities and having a role in the team. But misfortune continues to haunt the team after Sikma, Gifai which is one of the central gears of the team (20 points, 9 rebounds, 5.5 assists both together).
On the other Basconia comes from a great victory over Valencia with 71-70 returning from -17 just before the middle of the 2nd period. He went ahead for the first time after the initial 2-1 at the beginning of the 4th period with a three-pointer 61-58 and maintained the lead with a short head until the end. Polonara was the beginning of the overthrow, although at some point he shot a somewhat hasty three-pointer, infuriating Ivanovic, who left him on the bench for about 10 minutes before throwing him back in the game in the last 5-6 minutes. Gentright, Henry and Vildoza are the distinguished ones with Peters also helping in the second half.
Summing up I think Basconia can take advantage of the huge absences of the hosts and get another double (3-4 out). Along with Under as the home team lost all the games in almost everything, it remained very low in scoring while most of Basconia's doubles were achieved through its defense.
The point I choose is ... Baskonia (-2.5 & Under 156.5 pts) in performance 2.60 at stoiximan.
