After both teams suffered single-possession losses last week, Buducnost (1-1) and Slask (0-2) will look to get back onto the winning path in Tuesday's opening tip-off. Buducnost has relied on its defense so far, allowing just 72.0 points per game – third best in the competition. That strength could spell trouble for Slask, which has struggled to find offensive production with just 70.5 points per game. The Polish team boasts the fourth-best player in the competition in terms of PIR, Dusan Miletic (24.0 PIR), and the Serbian center will need to deliver another big performance to take a road win.
Pre-game quotes: Buducnost vs. Slask

Oliver Vidin, Slask head coach
Obviously two of our point guards are injured, but it doesn't matter when we can't rebound the ball or we don't fight in the second half. I hope it will look better when our new player, Frankie Ferrari, will join the team. For now, we have to fight with what we have.
Jakub Niziol, Slask player
We have to prove our fans that the image of the team that they have seen in our last game will not be the same for the rest of the season. We are hurt, but injuries can't be our excuse and at the end it doesn't matter for fans, players, coaches and club management.
