The conclusion of Round 13 has brought some clarity to the standings with the eight-seed in Groups A and B both two wins clear of the teams on the outside of the playoff picture looking in.
It also brought the second highest scoring effort in regulation time in 7DAYS EuroCup history as Gran Canaria’s 118-point effort fell within 3 points of the previous record of 121 set over 20 years ago.
The EuroCup is not exactly young. Tipping off back in the winter of 2002, the competition has contested 4,240 games through this week; it's seen highs, lows, and everything in between. Even so, when Gran Canaria poured in 118 points in regulation against Paris Basket on Wednesday, it was difficult not to begin the search for historical context.
It is not easy to eclipse 100 points in a 40-minute game let alone have a brush with the 120-point mark—only 19 teams have made it into triple digits this season. Reaching 100 points requires a fairly rare combination of pace and efficiency.
