The Basketball Champions League quarterfinals tipped off with lots to see and are already foreshadowing a very exciting finish to the season, culminating with four inseparable teams in the Final Four.
However, the race for those tickets is still going and the hardest part is just coming as the squads got to know each other better after Game 1. Tenerife, Hapoel Holon, Manresa and Cluj were victorious in the openers but they won’t have an easy time closing out the best-of-three series.
The schedule for Game 2 will start on April 12 with three games while one matchup will play out on April 13.
