Not benign draw for Dinamo in the FIBA Champions League. The Swiss pot placed the team from Sassari (starting from the third pot) in group D with Aek, Riesen and Szczecin.
Aek Athens reached the quarter-finals of the FIBA competition last year and reached the semi-finals of the Greek Cup. Historic club that boasts 8 league titles, an Intercontinental Cup, two Cup Winners' Cups and the Champions League won in 2018. Ludwigsburg's Riesen is like the Greeks an old acquaintance. The German team reached the semi-finals of both the Bundersliga and the German Cup and played in the Champions League play-ins.
It is difficult to define Szczecin as the weak link because we are talking about the team that won the title in Poland by defeating the multiple Polish champions of Wroclaw.
The goal remains to make it through the regular season after the eliminations of the last two years. Even third place is enough to then contend with the second of another group to advance to the following stages.
