CSKA Moscow finished its 2016-17 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague season in third place after defeating Real Madrid 94-70 at the Sinan Erdem Dome in Istanbul Sunday, ensuring last year's champions CSKA the league's overall best record for the season at 26-9.

Free throws by Fridzon and a triple by Teodosic carried CSKA's lead to 28-14 midway through the second quarter, followed by Felipe Reyes' three-point play and Dontaye Draper's triple.

Real Madrid's Ayon and Andres Nocioni led an 8-0 run, however free throws by Nikita Kurbanov and a three-pointer by De Colo put CSKA ahead 45-32, at halftime.

With Higgins and Teodosic's help, De Colo kept CSKA rolling at 53-67. After Fridzon's another three-pointer early in the fourth quarter and a boost by Vorontsevich and James Augustine, CSKA led 76-60. Jackson scored a triple and struck again to seal the outcome at 67-84 with over three minutes left.

Later on Sunday, Istanbul giants Fenerbahçe will play against Greece's Olympiacos in the final match of Turkish Airlines Euroleague Basketball.
