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 CSKA's Sasha Kaun earned Player of the Game Honors.
Augusto Cesar Lima of the opposing Unicaja Malaga earned the Play of the Game for the fast break after the block and the dish to his teammate on the other side of the court.
FC Barcelona, would steal the show Thursday night, however, as Regal's Ezarem Lorbek would earn Thursday's Nightly Notable for coming up big for his team when it counted most. Lorbek scored all his 16 points in the last 13 minutes for FC against Caja Laboral.
The spotlight also shined on Ezram's teammate, Nate Jawai, as he earned Play of the Night honors for this sweet alley-oop dunk.
Other teams would not be outdone, though, as Panathinaikos' James Gist would take away Thursday's Dunk of the Night for this great two-handed put back slam. . .
while Zalgiris' Rimantas Kaukenas served a good helping of rejection earning him Thursday's Block of the Night.
