The Slovenian team's triumph in the final game of the regular season's penultimate round forces the squad led by coach Diego Ocampo to rely on only two specific combinations to finish third or fourth in the group and host the round of 16 tie.
Most scenarios, following Baxi's loss against Venice (75-91) on Wednesday, will force the Manresa team to finish fifth and play the play-in away. Potential opponents in this situation include Türk Telekom, Buducnost, or Trento from the opposing group.
The only two options for Baxi Manresa to play at Nou Congost necessarily involve a loss by Venice at home against Hapoel, coupled with a victory for Baxi Manresa at the Hamburg Towers court next week.
Should Venice lose and Manresa win, Baxi would secure third place if Cedevita loses against Slask Wroclaw (avoiding a three-way tie with Bahçesehir). If Cedevita wins, Baxi would finish fourth and still host the play-in game.
