Before the Quarterfinals, a Basketball Champions League rewind produced the Top 10 Plays of March.

A spectacular dunk by Retin Obasohan ranked first but was not enough for BAXI Manresa to progress through Group K of the Round of 16.

UnaHotels Reggio Emilia is preparing for a best-of-three series against defending champion Unicaja with Kenneth Faried on board. In a usual role across highlight reels, the Manimal went fifth with a dunk and ninth with a block.

Sitting sixth behind an emphatic block and tenth with a jam, RaiQuan Gray of AEK Betsson shaped another double appearance in the Top 10.

Ebuka Izundu and James Palmer Jr. producing finishes in style for Galatasaray sat second and third. Jayvon Graves of Rytas was fourth, Jaylen Barford of Reggio Emilia seventh, and D.J. Stephens of UCAM Murcia eighth.
