Fenerbahce
The second coach will not be able to bring Fenerbahce to the level of Zeljko Obradovic. Just like a year ago, the former Euroleague champion has already registered at the bottom of the standings.

In the second half of the meeting, the Baltics won with a handicap of 11 points, laying the foundation for the final success. De Colo managed to score 17 points, becoming the most productive member of his team.
Anadolu Ephesus
Anadolu has set a course to improve the tournament situation. Until recently, the reigning Euroleague champion was in the penultimate place. Now he is on the 10th line, with 5 wins and 6 losses. A week ago, the Ataman's team was able to beat the debutant in the face of Monaco. The Turkish team gave the initiative to the opponent only in the third quarter, which did not affect the final outcome of the meeting at all – 98:77.
