Cluj (2-1) hosts Buducnost (2-1) in a key game in the race for the knockout phase. The home team will be powered by D.J. Seeley, the league's second-highest scorer with an average of 19.3 points per game, including 22 in last week's narrow loss at Bourg. Buducnost bases its offense on a strong inside game, scoring 28 two-pointers on 43 attempts in last week's big win over Slask. Feeding the ball to JaCorey Williams, who registered a double-double of 18 points and 11 rebounds last time out, will be essential for the visiting team in Wednesday's opening tip-off.

Mihai Silvasan, Cluj head coach
"We will play against a really talented team. They have many players that can make the difference and also benefit from a deep bench. Anyway, we will play at home, so we only think about a victory. I hope we will celebrate with our fans at the end of the game. Jarell Eddie is a little bit injured, we will see soon whether he can play or not."
Karel Guzman, Cluj player

We will play at home, so we hope our fans will come in high numbers, as they always do. We promise to fight for every ball and do everything to win. Buducnost has tough players, with scoring mentality. Obviously, we have the same objective and winning is the only option!"
