    MUNICH (Germany) - The FIBA Europe Cup returned in style this week with games that left you on the the edge of your seat and individual pieces of brilliance.

    Here are this week's standing performers with two 30-point displays and two double-doubles just scratching the surface. You can vote for your favorite below.

    Toney Douglas hit six three-pointers and managed an efficiency rating of 38 as he went for 36 points and 10 rebounds, shooting an impressive 68 percent on the night. However, despite FC Porto leading by as many as 17 points, they fell to late heroics from Maroussi BC in a tough 82-81 defeat.

    Another player that enjoyed a double-double was Casademont Zaragoza's Jilson Bango. Only this time, he tasted victory as his side scored a crucial 97-83 road over Tofas Bursa, ending the Turkish team's unbeaten start to the competition. The Angola international swatted away two shots along with 19 points and 10 rebounds for a rating of 27.

    Eric Nottage was outstanding for Fribourg Olympic but ultimately his side fell short against Anwil Wloclawek. The American exploded for 31 points, 4 assists and 3 steals, scoring an efficiency rating of 25, but it wasn't enough as his side narrowly lost 78-72.

    Nottage was denied by Luke Petrasek, as the big man was a rebound-shy of a double-double for Anwil Wloclawek, going for 14 points and 9 boards in the win - shooting a solid 5-of-8 from the floor in the Polish outfit's crucial victory.

    PAOK mateco continued their unbeaten start to the Second Round with a hard-fought 95-81 success over JDA Bourgogne Dijon. Jackson Kreuser was a standout for the Greek side, as he hit 18 points and 4 rebounds with a block for a rating of 20.
