EuroCup Quarterfinals Game 1 March 10th-12th

by

Two games ended were already not going to be played, but one series did start on Tuesday with limited fans.  Landes had a fantastic start in Charleville-Mezieres, but Carolo fought back and caused the game to end in a 74-all tie.  Avenida did not travel for their game at Dynamo Kursk.  FIBA already postponed Girona’s game against Reyer Venezia.  Thursday’s game between Braine and Valencia had been scheduled with limits on fans, but was ultimately called off when FIBA stopped competitions on both the women’s and men’s sides.
