MUNICH (Germany) - The sixth, and final week of the Regular Season is upon us as the battle to claim the final spots in the Play-Off Round 1 reaches a dramatic conclusion.
A number of clubs are already safely assured of their passage through to the next phase, but there's still plenty to play for - especially for the four best-ranked third placed spots, alongside the top two from each of the 12 groups.
With three of the groups already containing teams in third place with three wins, it's unlikely that two wins will be enough to advance.
Teams qualified so far: LDLC ASVEL, InvestInTheWest Enea Gorzow, Hozono Global Jairis, UFAB 49, IDK Eukostren, Crvena Zvezda, BLMA, Sopron Basket, Tarbes Gespe Bigorre, Movistar Estudiantes, VBW Gdynia, MB Zaglebie Sosnowiec, BDS Dinamo Sassari, Galatasaray Cagdas Factoring, BAXI Ferrol, Besiktas JK, GEAS Basket, Spar Girona,
