The teams preparing for continental play had their games moved up to midweek.  On Wednesday, Kayla McBride helped Fenerbahce edge their other Istanbul rivals 84-76 despite the best efforts of Angela Salvadores and Crystal Bradford for Besiktas.  Galatasaray had balance in an 85-61 win over Hatay.  Thursday’s game ended up being a battle of Lithuanians as Egle Siksniute was impressive for Izmit when a fast start helped them past Gabija Meskonyte and Adana 91-78.  Saturday started with Elazig getting good games from Emma Cannon and Alena Hanusova, but not having enough firepower to compete with Cukurova in a 92-73 loss.  Elizabeth Williams and Botas beat Brittney Sykes and Orman 64-60.  Kayseri was the latest team to breeze past Stephanie madden and Samsun, which they did 107-54 behind a strong debut from Kalani Brown and another big game from Ty Harris.  Cankaya University suffered from lack of depth again as they got good games from Shavonte Zellous and Tan White, but Ruthy Hebard and Katsiaryna Snytsina led Nesibe to a 91-80 win.
