It was quite an exciting Gameday 11 in Basketball Champions League and full of fiery performances. However, only five players can make it into the Team of the Week.
Marcos Knight, Guard
On his BCL debut, Knight poured in 27 points, handed out 5 assists and grabbed 6 rebounds as the German club prevailed, 87-74, at Anwil. A Final Four outfit last year, MHP Riesen kept their slim hopes alive of make it to the post-season with a third triumph in 11 games.
Gary Neal, Guard
On Wednesday evening, in just his third BCL game, Neal scored 21 points to lead the Bandirma outfit to a 75-72 win at Nizhny Novgorod, a victory that clinched a spot in the Play-Offs.
Kevin Punter, Guard
Vince Hunter, Forward
e AEK big man hardly put a foot wrong in leading the defending champions to an 80-56 victory in Greece over JDA Dijon. Hunter made 9 of 10 shots fro the floor, hauled in 9 rebounds and came up with a steal in just 20 minutes! He ended up with a +30 efficiency.
Ziga Dimec, Center
Dimec played like the European champion that he is on Wednesday evening for Lietkabelis in their impressive 84-67 home triumph over Brose Bamberg. The home side fed him the ball early and often and he made the most of the opportunities, finishing with 16 points on 5 of 6 shooting from the floor and with makes on all 6 of his free-throws. Dimec, a FIBA EuroBasket 2017 winner with Slovenia, had 5 rebounds, 2 blocks and a steal.
