SDH Presents Thursday's Top Performers of Euroleague Basketball's Top 16 Week 6 (1/31/2013)

The Turkish Airlines Euroleague Top 16 playoffs trudges on with eight teams continue to fight tooth and nail in order to reach Championship glory.  Here are the top performers from Thursday night's action starting with the Game of the Week where Real Madrid's Rudy Fernandez was selected as the Player of the Game of the Week.



His teammate, Sergio Llul also shined as he earn the Play of the Game of the Week for his buzzer beating halftime shot.


And finally, to complete the "hat trick" for Real Madrid, Jaycee Carroll was simply impressive with a career-high 31 points on 6-of-8 three-point shooting against CSKA Moscow earning him tonight's Nightly Notable.


Despite losing the game, CSKA still had its bright moments thanks to Sonny Weems who earned himself and his team Thursday's Play of the Night.


Both CSKA and Real Madrid would not hog the spotlight, however, as Zalgiris' Mario Delas come out with Thursday's Dunk of the Night  for this great play slicing down the middle and finishing with the one handed flush.


Maccabi's Ricky Hickman also wowed fans with this dish to his teammate earning him the Assist of the Night.


And finally, let's end on a nasty note with this great swat from Olympiacos'  Kyle Hines which earned him recognition as Thursday's Block of the Night.
