Round 18 brough four no-contest matches with the new top 4 teams all edging their opponents with 20+ point margin. Previous #4 Row Rybnik fell after a blistering match at Gorzów and dropped to 5th. Starts of the night were definitely in Row-AZS clash, where 32 points from Rachela Fitz weren’t enough to stop AZS led by Agnieszka Skobel’s 31-point outing.

Trivia:

3-on-5 is even better: Skobel/Weaver/Smally trio combined for 78 of AZS’s 85 points and 87 of 99 team evaluation mark. They were together 29/37 from the field and 11/12 from the line. Why bother playing too many players on the field?
Lauries watch: Nothing to talk about. 1/1 for Koehn, 0/3 for Prohaska. Both were overtaken by Elżbieta Mowilk, who leads the league with 48% from deep.
The twin towers: Well, one is slightly smaller, but still. Aneika Henry and Geraldine Robert share the league best average eval at 18.7 per game.
