Permutations: Who will earn the next ticket to the Round of 16?
MIES (Switzerland) - There are two games left in the Basketball Champions League Regular Season Groups D, E, G and H, meaning it's time to get the calculators out. We found there are still 128 possible outcomes, but narrowed it to the big ones, including the teams that could advance to the Round of 16 or be eliminated this week.
Unicaja, SIG Strasbourg and Telekom Basket Bonn are currently the only teams that clinched first spots in their respective groups and thus advanced to the Round of 16 already.
Eight group winners are going straight to the Round of 16; second- and third-placed teams will face off in a best-of-three Play-In Series in January to give us the remaining eight teams for the sweet sixteen phase. For more on the competition format, click here.
