Round 3 MVP: Tornike Shengelia
Shengelia's performance index rating of 37 tied his career high after 187 EuroLeague games, and his 33 points and 10 two-pointers made were personal bests, too. He made 10 of his 16 two-point attempts, 2 of 4 three-pointers and 7 of 11 free throws while drawing 7 fouls and collecting 8 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals.
This is the sixth MVP of the Round honor of Shengelia's career. He's the first player to win back-to-back honors since Shane Larkin of Anadolu Efes Istanbul did it an unprecedented four times in a row in January of 2020.

In only his second appearance in the competition, Da Silva posted 22 points, 5 rebounds and 2 steals, while De Colo had 15 points, 8 assists, 4 rebounds and 2 steals.
