Red-hot Lewis heads Top Performer lineup
MUNICH (EuroLeague Women) – Kaleena Lewis caught fire on Wednesday to spark Carolo Basket's 73-68 win over Olympiacos and earn the weekly Top Performer honors.
Coming off two successive defeats and the news of Queralt Casas leaving for Sopron, the French side responded in style, with Lewis taking the spotlight with her best game of the season. The 25-year-old dropped 32 points on 10-of-15 shooting, including 5-of-8 from three-point range, and pulled down 7 rebounds for a week-high efficiency ranking of 32.
A regular in the Top Performer lineups, Alyssa Thomas came a close second with an efficiency of 30. The US power forward keeps impressing with her consistent performances in her debut EuroLeague Women season, leading ZVVZ USK Praha to a 5-1 record. The Czech side underlined their ambitions with a resounding 101-62 success at ESBVA-LM, behind an all-action 19 points on 9-of-11 from the field, 10 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 steals from Thomas.
TTT Riga guard Sheylani Peddy has been in equally fine fettle, making the Team of the Week for the third time in a row, much to the delight of the fans in the Latvian capital. On Thursday, TTT kept their cool in the clutch to take down Turkish powerhouse Fenerbahce 68-64, Peddy leading the way with 23 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 5 steals.
US national team duo Breanna Stewart and Brittney Griner are rounding out the lineup in the frontcourt. Stewart top-scored with 21 points, including the go-ahead basket with 14 seconds to go, and added 11 boards to inspire Dynamo Kursk's 58-56 win at Perfumerias Avenida and keep the Russian side undefeated.
Reigning champions UMMC also kept their perfect record intact, as they beat Famila Schio 82-68, with Griner collecting 21 points, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks.
