MOTOROLA MAGIC MOMENT: Belinelli sets up Zizic
A Palmer layup was followed by a Miletic dunk before Gravett and Enoch traded baskets in an early exchange of blows, 4-4. Marek Klassen registered 4 assists in the first 5 minutes and Miletic drilled a triple for an 11-6 Slask cushion. Then, the hosts went on a 5-0 run to extend their lead to 16-9, but Wallace netted one from deep and Palmer scored a reverse layup in transition to cut the difference to 2 points, 16-14. Wallace and Klassen swapped triples to make it 23-22, but a Saybir bucket from inside and a Palmer free throw allowed Turk Telekom to take a 26-27 lead into the second quarter.
Miletic netted a basket to take his tally to 11 points, but Wallace nailed back-to-back triples to give the guests a 28-33 cushion. Slask responded with a 5-0 surge, but Wallace scored his fifth three-pointer of the night to put Turk Telekom back in front, 33-36. A Niziol triple from distance was followed by a Jones basket before the latter knocked down a three-pointer to make it 38-43 for the visitors. The Turkish side extended its run to 0-12, with Jones and Enoch dominating in the paint to secure a 40-50 lead at halftime.
Enoch netted his sixth bucket of the night to open the third quarter before Gravett responded with a basket of his own, but a Palmer triple gave Turk Telekom a 42-55 cushion. Back-to-back makes from Miletic and Gravett were followed by a Palmer triple and a Saybir bucket, 46-60. Then, Jones rejected Miletic at one end and scored a basket at the other to maintain a double-digit lead, 52-65. Yet, the hosts ended the third quarter with a 5-0 run to trim the deficit to 57-65 heading into the fourth.
Mikolaj Adamczak and Palmer exchanged triples, before back-to-back baskets from Enoch and Ismail Cem Ulusoy extended Turk Telekom’s lead to 60-72. A couple of Palmer three-pointers, an Ulusoy layup and a Wallace basket in transition saw Turk Telekom grab a 65-84 cushion and practically put the game to bed with 3 minutes left on the clock.
Turk Telekom will clinch the last playoff spot in Group B if Dolomiti Energia Trento loses to Aris Midea Thessaloniki on Wednesday; or if Buducnost VOLI Podgorica beats Dreamland Gran Canaria on the same night. That said, the Turkish side will be eliminated if Trento wins and Buducnost loses.
