EuroLeague Women: Avenida, Polkowice claim final two second-round spots

There were just two spots remaining in the next round of the 2024-25 EuroLeague Women competition, and four teams were aiming at them. Perfumerias Avenida and DVTK HUN-Therm battled directly for one of them in Group A, while Polkowice and Villeneuve-d’Ascq LM played against teams that already secured their spots in Group C. In the end, Avenida and Polkowice progressed, and Groups E and F are set for the beginning of the second round on Dec. 11.

On the final game day of the first round, these players turned in some of the most noteworthy performances:

Morgan Green, the former UC Irvine standout , delivered her best performance of the short EuroLeague season so far, scoring 21 points (72 percent from the floor), grabbing three boards and dishing out five assists. She helped Tango Bourges Basket beat Žabiny Brno by 20 points, 85-65.

Bridget Carleton scored game-high 18 points for UNI Győr in their final game in this year’s competition, while, on the other side, Stephanie Mavunga got her first start for Valencia this season and contributed 12 points and nine boards in her team’s 12-point win over the Hungarians, 86-74.
