In the first matches of the quarter-finals of the FIBA Europe Cup, two Estonian players, Sander Raieste and Janari Jõesaar, were in action with their respective clubs. Raieste's team, Murcia, managed to clinch a hard-fought victory against the Italian team Reggiana with a score of 85-84. Raieste played for nearly 16 minutes, contributing defensively with six rebounds but did not attempt any shots. Michael Forrest was the standout player for Murcia, scoring 22 points, and his critical free throw in the dying seconds secured the win for his team.

On the other hand, Janari Jõesaar's club, Bosna, initially led against the Hungarian team Falco Szombathely with a halftime score of 44-37. However, they were unable to maintain their advantage and succumbed to a significant loss with a final score of 81-66. Both Jõesaar and Michael Young were the standout players for Bosna, each scoring 11 points. Jõesaar also contributed with six rebounds, reflecting his all-around capabilities despite the team's setback.

The outcome of these quarter-final matches underlines the competitive nature of the FIBA Europe Cup and highlights the performances of Estonian players on the European stage. While Raieste's club will look to build on their momentum in the next match, Jõesaar and Bosna will need to regroup and refocus for their upcoming games as they aim for a comeback in the tournament.
