MIES (Switzerland) - Wednesday's six-game slate might be shorter than that of Gameday 13's super-Tuesday, but it marks a pivotal juncture in the race for a spot in the Play-Offs from Group B, as Hapoel play host to Burgos in Jerusalem and RASTA Vechta entertain AEK in Germany.

A minute of silence will be observed before the start of every Basketball Champions League game this week, in the honor and memory of FIBA World Cup ambassador and two-time Olympic Gold medalist Kobe Bryant.
