PAOK and Lavrio thrown into battle play-in of the Basketball Champions League facing Strasbourg (19:30, COSMOTE Sport 7) and Benetton Treviso (21:30, COSMOTE Sport 4) respectively.
The “Bicep of the North” is playing for its survival in the tournament, as after the crash with 105-78 in Strasbourg, it must win today in the Pylaia indoor to equalize the series and have another chance to win in France, the next Wednesday. Aris Lykogiannis will not have the injured Malcolm Griffin and Michalis Kamberidis at his disposal, while the newly acquired Anthony Lee, who replaced Derek Ogbeide, will make his debut. The French team will line up full, as Roberson and Moran recovered.
Lavrio has a difficult mission in Italy against Treviso, in the first match of the series. Apart from the team of Christos Serelis, there are Nikos Persidis and Alexandros Nikolaidis, while Corey Saunders, who was acquired to fill the gap of Tyson Carter, who was sold to Zenit, will make his debut. The second match of the series will take place next Tuesday at SEF.
