On Saturday, Adana Aski could have taken a big step towards safety, but a good game from Michelle Snow was not enough as they lost to Besiktas 79-72. Frida Eldebrink continued leading shorthanded Botas as they beat Bria Hartley and Mersin 71-63. Gintare Petronyte and Galatasaray won a key game in the chase for the playoffs as they beat Gabriela Marginean and Abdullah Gul University 86-58. Jantel Lavender and Yakin Dogu University did not waste any time in crushing Istanbul University 98-42. On Sunday, Alina Iagupova did not get her usual help and Orman showed that they were not just going to be content with playing out the string in safety as they won 72-66. Fenerbahce had a balanced effort in a 76-51 win Samsun.
