ratiopharm Ulm-Joventut Badalona | Round 2 Highlights | 2024-25 BKT EuroCup
Kramer matched a triple by Cristiano Felicio and a long two by Christon for an early 5-5 tie. But Felicio went inside, Thornwell opened his EuroCup career from deep and Christon drove for a layup to put the visitors in front 5-12. Slaughter answered for Gran Canaria from the arc, but when Blossomgame finished a break, the hosts needed a timeout at 8-14. John Shurna lifted Gran Canaria with a breakaway layup and a triple to make it 13-14 and Kramer gave the hosts the lead on another fastbreak. However, Christon flipped it back to Ulm and Fedor Zugic's three-point play made it 15-19. Thornwell got loose for another break before Herkenhoff hit a jumper that left the guests up 18-23 after 10 minutes.
Thornwell hit 4 free throws for an Ulm lead of 18-27 that he and Nicolas Bretzel protected with early second-quarter blocks. Kramer and Slaughter tried to spark Gran Canaria, but Bretzel and Thornwell scored in close before Blossomgame buried back-to-back triples to quickly carry Ulm's advantage up to 24-37. Christon added a basket to the lead before Salvo and Khalifa Diop gave Gran Canaria a pair of much-needed new scorers. Salvo's second basket lowered the difference to 33-41, but Christon and Blossongame lifted it to 35-45. Oliver Stevic took 2 back at the foul line for the hosts but Thomas Klepeisz finished the half from deep for a 37-48 Ulm lead.
Diop's 2 quick baskets after the break set up Kramer for a triple that suddenly had Gran Canaria within 44-50. Blossomgame answered from downtown, and when Slaughter matched him on a third-chance shot, Klepeisz also went deep at 47-56. Ulm's defense allowed only free throws over more than 6 minutes while Thornwell scored a put-back, Zugic struck and Blossomgame finished a break at 52-65. The hosts could only score at the foul line still as Herkenhoff blasted a triple that kept Ulm up 55-68 after 30 minutes.
Salvo ended Gran Canaria's field goal drought with a three-pointer to open the fourth quarter. Karim Jallow downed a finger roll for Ulm before Slaughter struck from deep, too. Blossomgame was ready with answers inside and out, however, as the Ulm lead climbed again to 61-76. Ennis, with his first field goal, and Slaughter, from downtown and the free throw line, willed Gran Canaria to within 68-78. Christon capitalized on a rare Ulm offensive rebound. Ennis fed Kramer for a back-door reverse and then finished a break at 72-80. Christon again steadied Ulm and Felicio dunked at 72-84, but Slaughter bit into the difference with a triple. Christon's free throws were met by Ennis firing from way downtown to make it 78-86 with under 3 minutes left. Ennis went up and under for the next basket at 80-86. Thornwell answered with free throws and a steal that ended in a put-back dunk by Blossomgame, restoring a double-digit lead at 80-90 and assuring Ulm a huge road win.
