As always, the double-round week brought big winners in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague. Three teams won twice each and took interesting jumps in the standings. Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul downed TD Systems Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz and Panathinaikos OPAP Athens by a combined 46 points, extended its winning streak to five games and now sits one win away from playoffs territory. AX Armani Exchange Milan defeated both Valencia Basket at home and ALBA Berlin in the German capital by double-digit margins. Milan is tied on victories for fourth place. FC Barcelona overcame injuries to take two wins in Russia, against Khimki Moscow Region and CSKA Moscow, behind an outstanding Cory Higgins. Barcelona now holds second place alone, a victory behind CSKA, whom it has beaten twice.
