However, James White and D'Or Fischer starred as that deficit was wiped out with time to spare, Unics ultimately prevailing 88-79 at Ostend's Sleuyter Arena.
White scored 21 points, while Fischer contributed 18 plus eight rebounds to lead an improbable turnaround.
Unics will now compete in Group A of Euroleague, with Real Madrid among their opponents.
