CSKA (finished 2nd, with a 24-10 record) enters the playoffs with six wins in a row from the regular season. They are trying to leave behind them the divorce from Mike James, CSKA’s leading scorer and passer, who failed to create a communication channel with his coach, Dimitris Itoudis. Beyond that, the Greek coach does not have at his disposal starting center Milutinov (who is knocked out until the end of the season) and useful tall guy Bolompoy. Itoudis will be asked to decide at the last minute whether he will throw Hackett in the battle of the final-8.
Fenerbahce (7th, 20-14) has travelled to Moscow destroyed, facing many issues ahead of the first two games of the series (winner will be decided in 2 wins). Coach Igor Kokoskov and key players Ulanovas, Jarell Eddie, and Bobby Dixon didn’t make the trip to Russia due to Covid-19. Simultaneously, irreplaceable Jan Vesely remains injured, but the medical team is optimistic that they will make it for game 3. Pierre and Duverioglu remain doubtful; hence all the weight will fall on superstars Nando De Colo and Marko Guduric.
