Efes was outscored by CSKA 96-100 at home in Round 2 despite 32 points from EuroLeague MVP Vasilije Micic. The game will be a homecoming of sorts for the two Frenchman on the Efes roster, Rodrigue Beaubois and Adrien Moerman, though neither has ever played for ASVEL before. Efes looks to avoid a 0-3 start for the first time since 2017 when it lost its first five games of the season.
