Inching closer to the next stage of the Basketball Champions League with the remaining contenders in the last step to the Final Four, the penultimate Gameday 5 of the Basketball Champions League Round of 16 featured plenty of highlights, reviewed and presented in the form of the weekly Top 5.
Limoges CSP was down for the count but Tomas Kyzlink was really into it Wednesday night. Driving through the Unicaja defense and over Yankuba Sima at the finish, he smashed a dunk and ranked first among the best plays of Gameday 5.
A usual entrant in Michale Kyser delivered another big-time jam with Surne Bilbao falling short at Darussafaka Lassa Tuesday. Both sides were eliminated the next day as UCAM Murcia beat Lenovo Tenerife.
BAXI Manresa’s Martinas Geben looking ready to possibly add to the trend of dunks in the Top 5 was met at the rim by Collin Malcolm. Thanks to the rejection, the guard of Telekom Baskets Bonn ranked third.
Levi Randolph helped Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem in the clinching win versus JDA Dijon with eight points, including a tough bucket to land him in fourth place.
In the fifth spot, Tim Frazier was determined to finish the first quarter with three more points for SIG Strasbourg, no matter the circumstances.
