In the Moscow “derby” (even if the BC Khimki Region is only located in a remote suburb of Moscow), Mike James had fun against the opposing defense. In less than 33 minutes, the American leader broke his EuroLeague points (36) and assists (10) records. With one more rebound he would have even finished in a triple-double. His performance allowed him to finish at 51 evaluation, and especially CSKA Moscow to win 96-87 away.
CSKA Moscow remains tied with FC Barcelona. Because after losing against Olympiakos Piraeus, the Sarunas Jasikevicius team regained the victory Friday against Milan (87-71). The Catalans were led at the start of the last quarter (60-61) before making the difference. Thomas Heurtel only played 3 minutes.
Finally, Zalgiris Kaunas took the lead at Panathinaikos Athens to win 81-69. Joffrey Lauvergne accumulated 8 points at 4/10 and 8 rebounds for 10 evaluation in 21 minutes.
