In 106-86 home win over Brose Bamberg, Randolph accumulated a performance index rating of 38, his highest as a Madrid player and the highest of this week, earning him MVP of the Round honors for the fourth time in his EuroLeague career. Randolph scored 23 points on 4-for-6 two-point shooting and matched his career-best by making 4 of 4 three-point shots. Randolph also registered a career-high 5 steals, along with 5 rebounds and 4 assists, making him Madrid's third MVP of the Round this season, after Luka Doncic and Fabien Causeur. The second-best performance of this round belongs to Nemanja Nedovic of Unicaja Malaga, who had a career-high PIR of 36. In 91-99 overtime road win over Fenerbahce Dogus Istanbul, Nedovic posted a career-high 31 points and set a club record by making a perfect 13 of 13 shots from the free throw line.
