   #1. Emanuel Terry (6'9''-F-95, graduated '18, plays pro in the NBA G League). He could not help the Sioux Falls Skyforce (23-19) to beat the Grand Rapids Drive (21-20) in the NBA G League. Terry scored 8 points, grabbed 7 rebounds and made 2 blocks in 23 minutes. The Sioux Falls Skyforce (#3) was badly defeated 107-91 on the road by the Drive. It was Skyforce's fifth consecutive loss in a row. Terry has relatively good stats this year 14.6ppg, 8.7rpg, 1.7apg, 1.1bpg and 1.5spg in 11 games he played so far.

   #2. Dorian Pinson (6'5''-F-96, graduated '18, plays in Germany) was not able to help Hebeisen White Wings Hanau (7-19) in their last game on Friday.

   #3. Vincent Bailey (6'7''-F-91, graduated '14, currently in Switzerland) was the major contributor in Boncourt's victory against the closely-ranked Massagno (12-6) 84-76 in the Swiss SBL on Sunday night.
