MIES (Switzerland) - Wednesday could prove the day where the picture of the next stage starts taking shape, since as many as three teams could secure a top-three finish in their respective group, which guarantees a place in the Play-ins, at the very least.

Here are 25 things you need to know ahead of the four Wednesday games:

AEK Betsson BC (3-0) v King Szczecin (1-2)

David Kravish scored in double digits in each of his last four BCL games against French teams

● Sassari, who are coming off an 89-79 win against Ludwigsburg in the reverse fixture, are looking to win consecutive BCL games for the first time since October-November 2020, when they won three in a row.

● Ludwigsburg, who have lost their two most recent road games in the BCL, are looking to avoid matching their longest losing slide on the road, the three consecutive losses between October-November 2018.

● Sassari's Stéphane Gombauld had a BCL season-high 18 points and 9 rebounds in the reverse fixture, after tallying 18 points and four rebounds in his first two BCL appearances combined. He also had 5 blocks in that game, the most ever for a Sassari player Sassari in a single BCL game.

● Stefan Momirov became the first Breogan to score 20 points in a BCL game with his 21 points last week against Holon. He had scored a combined 10 points in his first two BCL games, and he is yet to miss a 2-point shot in the competition (6-of-6 so far).

● If Holon's C.J. Harris scores 15 or more points on Wednesday it will be the first time in his career he achieves that feat in five consecutive BCL games. Harris has been responsible for three of the last six times a Holon player scored 15+ points in a BCL game.
