The third week of Basketball Champions League featured six games and it belonged almost entirely to the home teams, with the exception of Tofas Bursa which managed to steal a win against Keravnos on the road.
In what was expected to be the game of the week, the Dinamo Sassari squad outdid themselves as they logged a convincing win against Iberostar Tenerife. It was truly a team win with six players reaching double-digits and Marco Spissu was orchestrating it all with 15 assists, a couple short of the BCL record.
AEK and Hapoel Holon, on the other side, went at it in a high-scoring fiesta that came down to the wire but Keith Langford tipped the scales for the Greek side.
JDA Dijon and Falco Szombathely also got their wins while Tsmoki-Minsk started a new chapter with a win in their first BCL regular-season game.
