NEWSProteas EKA AEL cruised into the EuroChallenge Quarter-Finals after finishing their Top 16 campaign with a 74-60 win over Lokomotiv Rostov. In a game that had no implications on the final standings of Group K with Proteas having already locked up first place and Rostov knowing they had no chance of claiming second to earn a last-eight spot, the Cyprus giants prevailed for their fifth win in six games. |

Lokomotiv Rostov will not be advancing to the Quarter-Finals of the EuroChallenge but that hasn't stopped the club from making headlines this week. The Russian outfit has appointed former Union Olimpia and PGE Turow boss Sašo Filipovski as their new coach. |
