- Alba Berlin beat Saska Baskonia 97-90 at home for their fifth win of the EuroLeague season

- Former NBL big man Yanni Wetzell had 11 points for Alba Berlin
William McDowell-White continues to showcase his elite point guard skills on the big stage after helping lead Alba Berlin to a rare win in the EuroLeague after beating Saska Baskonia 97-90 at Uber Arena.
McDowell-White scored seven points and dished out seven assists as his team won just their fifth game of the season, winning every quarter along the way.
The Brisbane product, who recently spoke exclusively to Basketball.com.au, went 2-from-4 from the field, including 1-from-1 from the three-point line. He also grabbed two rebounds and had one steal in just 20 minutes.
Former New Zealand Breakers teammate, Yanni Wetzell, had 11 points in the win for Alba Berlin. There have been rumours Wetzell may return to the NBL next season but he and McDowell-White are desired by teams in Australia and New Zealand.
The win takes Alba Berlin's record in the EuroLeague to 5-24 and they still sit in last position on the ladder.
