Baxi Manresa travel to Lisbon in bid to keep first-place hopes alive
Baxi Manresa are having a solid start to the season, tied with Barcelona for a fifth place in a competitive Liga ACB, and 3-1 in the Basketball Champions League. Their first-place hopes are alive and well, but they need to defeat SL Benfica at the Pavilhao Fidelidade before having a final gameday rendez-vous with Bertram Derthona Basket, currently perfect and with a 17-point tiebreaker advantage over the Spaniards.
Derrick Alston Jr has been a standout performer for the Liga ACB side, averaging 18.8 per night in the Regular Season in the BCL, while Cameron Hunt and Retin OBasohan have been following with 11.5 points per game.
Things are looking harder for Benfica, with no wins in their four games to date. The perennial Portuguese champs are struggling in the Regular Season and need a win to keep their hopes alive for a play-ins invitation. Tyler Stone has been preaching in the desert for the Lusitans so far, but more is needed for a realistic chance to progress in the competition.
