The Beşiktaş Men's Basketball Team will face Spanish representative Valencia Basket in the first week of the new EuroLeague season. The black-and-white team aims to start its second stint in the organization with a victory in front of its fans.
The match will be played on Friday at the Turkcell Basketball Development Center. The game, which will start at 20:00, will be broadcast live on S Sport.
Invited to the EuroLeague with a "wild card," Beşiktaş will step onto the EuroLeague stage after a 13-season hiatus. The black-and-white team has only participated in this organization once before in club history, during the 2012-2013 season.
The Valencia Basket match will be the 25th game in Beşiktaş's EuroLeague history. During their 2012-2013 EuroLeague journey, the black-and-white team recorded 7 wins and 17 losses, and they were eliminated from the organization in the Top 16 round under the format at that time.
