No Spanish teams took the court in Eurocup games played on Tuesday. The top story on the agenda was the highest-scoring match in the competition's history.

Tofas beat Neptunas 94 to 79 at home, earning its fifth win in the group. The visitors closed the first half ahead 49 to 43, but Tofas won the third quarter 24 to 10, took the lead and kept it until the final buzzer. For the hosts, Zachary Nutall led with 20 points, while Shavar Reynolds and Bryce Jones scored 19 each. For Neptunas, Yannick Franke had 23 points and Einaras Tubutis 13.

The game between PAOK and Roma, played in Thessaloniki, ended with PAOK winning 113 to 111. Ben Moore turned the offensive rebound that followed Breein Tyree's missed shot in the final second into a basket, giving his team the victory. In the two-and-a-half-hour game, PAOK's Tyree scored 27, Cedi Osman 25, Marcus Foster 20 and Moore 13.

For Roma, Nico Mannion scored 18, Marko Simonovic 17, and Gerald Ayayi and Erik Stevenson 16 each.

A total of 224 points were scored in the game. This was the highest-scoring game in Eurocup history. The previous record belonged to the 118 to 103 game between Venezia and Neptunas last season. The third spot belongs to the 116 to 104 game between Crvena zvezda and Dinamo Sassari in the 2012/13 season.
