This decision has been taken considering Turkish and Israeli government recommendations.

This marks the second consecutive year that a matchup between these two teams has been moved to Riga. In last season’s relocated game, Efes secured a 105-91 victory.

Similarly, Fenerbahce's home game against Maccabi was relocated to Kaunas earlier this season for the same reasons. Fenerbahce emerged victorious in their Round 6 clash, winning 84-82.
