MIES (Switzerland) - Two teams have already advanced to the Quarter-Finals, while three other have already been eliminated from contention. The remaining 11 teams feel like they have a decent shot of making the elite eight, the question is: Who can get there this week?
Lenovo Tenerife and Telekom Baskets Bonn were the first two to book their tickets to the next phase. However, both still have plenty to play for, because they haven't secured the first spot and home court advantage in the Quarter-Finals.
Meanwhile, Hapoel Atsmon Holon, Limoges CSP and Bahcesehir College are the three teams that cannot finish higher than third in their groups, and are eliminated.
