The duel between Italians and Israelis, scheduled for Thursday, October 12, and the Israelis and Lithuanians clash, which was to be played on Wednesday, October 11, will be rescheduled “depending on the available dates” and evaluating “the best possible options” for both teams, notes the Euroleague.
