Another week of action in Basketball Champions League is in the books. Here are the best five players of Round 12!

Keifer Sykes, Guard

If you’re wondering what had happened to Superman, we’ve got the answer. He showed up in Bandirma, Turkey, on Tuesday night, wearing a Sidigas Avellino jersey. Sykes did not, alas, save the day for Avellino as they fell in a tough game to Banvit, 96-88, but he almost did.  The point guard poured in a Basketball Champions League record 43 points, making 16 of 24 shots from the floor. He was 6 of 10 from behind the arc. The two-time Horizon League Player of the Year while the a player at the University of Wisconsin Green Bay during his NCAA days, Sykes is the first player to ever make the Team of the Week after a loss.

David Holston, Guard

The 32-year-old playmaker of JDA Dijon is not the biggest player in the BCL at 1.73m (5ft 8in) in height, but he never backs down against any player or team. Holston drilled 7 of 13 shots from deep and scored a season-high 31 points in his team’s 99-91 triumph over Lietkabelis, a result that has kept the French club’s slim hopes of reaching the Play-Offs alive.
