Dinamo returns to PalaSerradimigni to host Venezia on Sunday at noon. Reyer has straightened out a season that started slowly and is now hot on the heels of the playoffs, more in line with its ambitious summer plans.

Dinamo, on the other hand, finds itself caught in the fight for survival and must try to repeat the feat of the first leg when it won at PalaTaliercio 84-78 with 19 points each from Bibbins and Fobbs.

Coach Massimo Bulleri explains: "It was an intense week physically and mentally, I am optimistic from this point of view but I ask the team to take another step forward because we must reach our maximum potential. Venice has its strong point in athleticism and the most continuous weapon in the counterattack. I want aggression in defense for 40 minutes".

Some physical ailments leave it in doubt which of the seven eligible foreigners will take to the stands, although guard Gazi appears the most likely candidate for exclusion.
