Candace Parker shone bright in EuroLeague Women Week 4, coming up big in UMMC Ekaterinburg's thrilling win at Good Angels Kosice and finishing as the week's top performer.
With UMMC trailing by 15 at half-time, Parker saved her best for last and carried her team when it mattered most.
The American forward scored 13 of her game-high 35 points in the final quarter to lead UMMC to a 72-68 triumph, keeping the defending champions undefeated in Group A.
Parker went 13-of-16 from the floor and added 16 rebounds for a season-high efficiency ranking of 48.
Jelena Dubljevic and Milica Dabovic came in second with an efficiency rating of 33 each.
Dubljevic amassed a double-double of 20 points and 14 rebounds to take ZVVZ USK Prague to a third consecutive victory, 67-63 over Galatasaray odeabank.
WBC Novi Zagreb tasted their first success of the season, a dramatic 70-67 home win against Kibirkstis-Vici Vilnius, mainly thanks to another remarkable performance by Dabovic.
The Serbian guard recorded 27 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 6 steals, picking up where she had left off last week.
"Last week I was the MVP of the week and that gave me a lot of confidence. This is a big step for our team in this competition," the 31-year-old said after the game.
