Quigley lands Top Performer award after lighting up Semi-Finals
ISTANBUL (Turkey) - Allie Quigley has been crowned Semi-Finals Top Performer after she held the hot hand with a sizzling shooting effort to propel defending champions UMMC Ekaterinburg into the EuroLeague Women Final.
The guard was largely unstoppable in a memorable 88-84 victory against Fenerbahce Oznur Kablo as she shot the lights out en-route to 27 points, as well as handing out 4 assists.
She is joined in the line-up by her UMMC teammate Breanna Stewart who came up with a vital score with 90 seconds remaining to help her team ultimately seal the deal, while also landing a fruitful 16 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists.
Meanwhile, Fenerbahce duo Satou Sabally and Alina Iagupova can count themselves unfortunate to have been on the losing side after two impressive outings.
The former reminded everyone why she was recently crowned EuroLeague Women MVP with a vibrant 26 points, 8 assists and 4 rebounds. Sabally starred again in what has been a terrific rookie campaign as she stepped out at the Final Four for the first time with a stellar 20 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists.
The line-up is completed by Tiffany Hayes who was at the heart of Perfumerias Avenida reaching the title game for the first time since 2011 when they won the silverware. She caught fire in the 72-61 Semi-Final success against Sopron Basket as she racked up 25 points from a stunning 73 percent shooting effort, also pulling down 5 boards.
