Most of the games were on Saturday as Galatasaray beat Avery Warley and Adana Aski 64-59. Riquna Williams had another good game for Osmaniye, but it was not enough firepower to match Barbara Turner and Courtney Paris dominating the paint for Hatay in a 78-68 win. Fenerbahce continued to hold the top spot in the standings after a 75-51 win over MBK Dogus Hastanesi. Besiktas continues to play well after a poor start, winning 72-41 at Botas. A battle of university-sponsored teams went to Abdullah Gul University 77-68 over Girne University. On Sunday, Frida Eldebrink led all scorers, but Mersin lost 73-54 to Istanbul University.
