Clinching wins and heartbreaking losses were all part of the penultimate week of the Basketball Champions League Regular Season. The latter teams included the Bakken Bears being eliminated despite defeating Darussafaka.

Longtime small forward of the Denmark champions, Darko Jukic secured the win with a commanding effort inside the paint at the buzzer. That did not keep his side in the hunt for a berth in the Play-Ins but did enough to rank first in the Top 5 Plays of the Week.

In the second place, Providence product Nate Watson delivered a powerful rejection to Marko Josilo but did not prevent the home loss of ERA Nymburk to Igokea m:tel and thus the elimination of the Czech Republic champions.

A behind-the-back pass from Jamar Smith to Jerry Boutsiele was an early brilliant play for Bahcesehir Koleji and also ranked third. However, Surne Bilbao made short work of the Istanbul outfit on the way to the Round of 16.

On to the fourth spot, Kendrick Perry sank the game-winning shot for Unicaja at PAOK mateco.

Markis McDuffie with a spectacular dunk in transition for JDA Dijon earned him fifth place.
