The SuperCup was played on Thursday with the EuroLeague and EuroCup winners from last season squaring off in a single game in Kursk. Dynamo Kursk had strengthened their team from last year in a bid to repeat while Yakin Dogu Universitesi looked to continue building from their success and to announce themselves as contenders to being among the top teams in Europe. Each team was missing a player due to the WNBA Finals, but it was a good game throughout as the hosts built their lead in the second half and won 84-73. Adding Sonja Petrovic to a strong roster could be critical late in the season as she led the way in this game and Angel McCoughtry made her return from resting.
