Turkey is scheduled to finish on the 11th, 13th, or 16th. |

It looks the same as Italy. Good to know.
Thanks for this whole thread.

Hungary is finished.
The situation in France is a little bit more clear now. Myisha Hines-Allen and Napheesa Collier flew to the United States between games to get vaccinated. Lattes Montpellier wanted them to be able to suit up today, but Villeneuve objected because they would theoretically not be observing the rules by doing so and the league agreed that they cannot play yet. |

That's bizarre. We have the various different vaccines on this side of the Atlantic as well - I'm surprised they couldn't just get it in France. |

Reyer Venezia and Fenerbahce won the first games in their series for those wondering who has the advantage. It will be interesting if Jasmine Thomas goes over a month without playing a competitive game even if she is guarding Iagupova, McBride, or whoever every day in practice. Given the other options, it does make sense for her not to take one of the four foreign slots.

Athletes are probably not considered essential, which explains Tarbes having an outbreak and not being able to play. France is apparently only at general eligibility for 55+ year olds so behind the pace in the UK or US. It sounds like both their teams wanted them to do it on that schedule as I think that would allow them to get the second dose right before they are ready to play. |

Wins again for Reyer Venezia and Fenerbahce so both sweeps are still possible.
As expected, Collier and Hines-Allen returning made it certain that Lattes Montpellier advance so they will play again on Thursday. |

Fenerbahce sweeps.
Reyer Venezia loses so the only club situation remaining is for Natasha Howard. |

Italy goes to Game 5 so that will be on Sunday.
I have always wondered if players have ever purposely thrown a game to go home sooner even if it costs them a postseason bonus. Not the case for Myisha Hines-Allen did not do that in a buzzer-beating win so she and Napheesa Collier will also play Saturday.
No current WNBA players, but Israel's Game 5 will not be played and the Americans involved will try to get home whenever possible amidst constantly shifting plans. The men's leagues will still try to finish their seasons so there could be a bunch of players waiting around. |
