Will Thomas scored 17 points, Mike Tobey added 15 points plus five rebounds and Louis Labeyrie dropped 12 points for Valencia that took control in the third quarter (21 – 14) and didn’t let Partizan escape with a win.

Marcus Paige had 14 points and Aleksej Nikolic for the Serbian team.

Despite the absence of injured Brandon Jennings, Zenit St. Petersburg crushed Trento on the road. No less than seven (!) players scored in double figures for the winning squad with Jalen Reynolds (14 points, 13 rebounds) and Phil Scrubb (14 points, six rebounds, five assists) contributing the most.
