Teams Preview

Minas

Minas Tenis Clube are back to the regular season in Brazil after a disappointing end in Champions League. They were hammered by Franca 3-0 in the quarterfinal round of the 2025-26 Champions League Americas. Minas allowed 101.3 points per game in the knockout stage which was a big failure in defense. The hosts would now focus on the league with a clash against Uniao Corinthians. They dropped their previous league game. It means, Minas would target to snap a four-game losing skid across all competitions. 

Minas were shooting 45% from the floor and 37% from the three-point line. However, they edged out Franca in the rebounding battle 45-30 but were out-assisted 19-26. They conceded a biggest lead of 22 points. Minas are the second best offensive unit in the league, averaging 87.0 points per game. They rank fourth in field goals (46.2%) and fifth in three-point shooting (33.4%). They rank second in the rebounds per game (39.8) and third in blocks per game (3.2). 

Tim Frazier was top scorer against Franca with 23 points and five assists. Jordan Williams went for 18 points, while McGree dropped 17 points. Winicius Silva Braga also added 11 points and seven rebounds. Jordan Williams could be an offensive threat in the upcoming league game. The 33-year-old averaged 14.5 points per game in the ongoing season. We back him to score 15 or more points in the home fixture. 

Ceisc/Uniao Corinthians

Uniao Corinthians are high on confidence with four consecutive victories in the league. They would use this confidence against struggling Minas. One team will lose their four-game streak. Uniao Corinthians are coming off a 77-66 victory against Vasco de Gama. With a 23-11 surge in the opening quarter, they built an early lead and never trailed. It was also their second straight home victory in the league. Corinthians improved to 16-13 in the regular season. 

Corinthians Uniao will now play two back-to-back road games and the first assignment is against Minas, who beat them earlier in the season. Uniao Corinthians were shooting 39% from the floor and 33% from the three-point line. They are sitting 10th in the standings. The visitors on Tuesday dropped four of the last six road games. They are scoring 79.4 points per game and allowing 80.9 points per game this season. They are fifth in field goals (45.5%) and seventh in three-point shooting (33.1%). 

Jeremy Hollowell led the scoring with 14 points and 13 rebounds, while Juan Cardenas also added 14 points. Nathaniel Barnes and Devon Scott dropped 12 points each. Isaac Goncalves added 11 points. Hollowell could also be an offensive threat for his consistent performance. The forward averaged 15.5 points in the regular season and scored in double-digit in each of the last 15 games. We back him to score 12 or more points against Minas.
