Bandirma guard Jaime Smith, Turk Telekom guard R.J. Hunter, Hapoel Jerusalem guard James Feldeine, UNET Hapoel forward/center Latavious Williams and Dinamo Sassari center Miro Bilan compile the Team of the Week in Round 3 of the Basketball Champions League 2019-2020 regular season.

Or, as the competition suggests, team of the “Hallo-week”

Per Basketball Champions League:

Gameday 3 had nothing spooky about it but left us with several memorable moments – not least the highest-scoring game in the history of the Basketball Champions League – and plenty of players put on their Superman outfit to vie for a spot on Team of the Week for Halloween.

So Jaime Smith of Teksüt Bandirma, R.J. Hunter of Türk Telekom, James Feldeine of Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem, Miro Bilan of Dinamo Sassari and Latavious Williams of UNET Hapoel had to beat some worthy competition but did more than enough this week to deserve a special place under the spotlight.

Here is the Team of the Week for Gameday 3:

Jaime Smith

The veteran point guard of Teksüt Bandirma had already delivered an inspiring performance for the first 39 minutes on Tuesday and sealed the deal with a dagger triple 33 seconds from the final buzzer that gave his team an 81-79 lead over San Pablo Burgos.

“We entered the final minute with good options to win but that triple by Smith was very punishing,” commented Burgos head coach Joan Peñarroya afterwards.

Bandirma went on to win 84-81, their first victory in Group B, as Smith finished with a game-high 29 points, which is the second-highest individual scoring display so far this season. The playmaker, shot 10 of 16 from the floor and added 3 assists and 2 rebounds for an efficiency rating of 27.
