Unicaja's 6-game Liga ACB winning streak was snapped in Girona at the weekend - will Manisa be able to win in another of the toughest Arenas after getting the W in Murcia?
The Turkish side got a convincing road win at the weekend, with Saben Lee scoring an uncharacteristic two points and dishing out 14 dimes for the likes of Sonsirma, Fabian White Jr, and Hugo Besson.
Aljami Durham worked to his season-high 22 points against Unicaja to beat the Andalusian giants with Girona at the weekend, in a night to forget for Ibon Navarro's side, now sharing the top of the Liga ACB with Valencia Basket and Real Madrid.
In the Basketball Champions League, Unicaja are still the team to beat and looked poised to repeat last season's title season, but will be wary of Saben Lee's offensive skill: the point guard is averaging 35.7 points per game in road games in the BCL.
