- The teams’ Round 17 contest this season, which saw Barcelona beat Baskonia 134-124 after triple overtime, went down in the EuroLeague record books as the highest scoring game in competition history (258 combined points) and the night that Barcelona broke the EuroLeague's all-time single-game scoring record. Barcelona also broke a club record for total team PIR (152), while Baskonia set a club scoring record, too. Barcelona's Kevin Punter set club records with 43 points and 12 two-point shots made on that night.
- In Barca's 3OT win, Punter earned MVP of the Round honors with a career-high PIR of 40. His 43 points were the fourth most in the modern EuroLeague era, becoming just the ninth player this century to score more than 40 points in a EuroLeague game. Logging 44 minutes and 59 seconds, Puter made career-high 12 two-pointers on 19 attempts. He also went 4-of-7 from three-point range and a perfect 7-of-7 from the free-throw line, while adding 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals.
- Barcelona guard Tomas Satoransky scored a career-best 23 points and had a career-best 32 PIR against Baskonia in Round 17.
