REF’s picks

I lean toward the Under 186.5 as the pace is likely to be dictated by Valencia's controlled half-court sets. This approach should keep the total points lower than the high-scoring projections favoured by the market.

1. 1Valencia’s preference for a methodical, defensive-oriented game at home.
2. 2Potential for cold shooting stretches from Baskonia under high-pressure scenarios.
3. 3The risk of a high-scoring game if Baskonia forces an early transition-heavy rhythm.
