Baskonia enters this matchup with a tough loss conceding a 89-83 defeat against Maccabi Rapyd Tel Aviv in Round 11 of the EuroLeague. They struggled early, in the first half due to slow defensive rotations, poor rebounding and repeated second chances for Maccabi. Although they responded well after the break with a 25-18 third quarter, they could not make a comeback.

Timothe Luwawu Cabarrot led the scoring for Baskonia Vitoria with 19 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists while Kobi Simmons contributed 12 points, 4 assists and 2 rebounds. Hamidou Diallo also added 11 points, 3 rebounds and 2 blocks.
