Ulm trio put up big numbers in a huge win
ratiopharm Ulm won a hard-fought battle over Frutti Extra Bursaspor 92-86 thanks to some record and some near-record performances by its players.
Playing in only his fourth game in the competition, center Bruno Caboclo tied a club record with 33 points and set a new one with 14 two-point shots made, doing it on 17 attempts. Those 14 two-pointers are the most scored in a single game in the 7DAYS EuroCup since Sharrod Ford set a competition record with 16 two-pointers made eight years ago, on February 11, 2015. Caboclo and Ford are the only two players with 14 or more two-pointers made in a single game in more than 10 years.
While Caboclo set club records, two other players flirted with rewriting club record books. Brandon Paul nailed 6 triples on 9 attempts, coming one three-pointer made shy of Ulm's record of 7 threes, set by Edgar Sosa in the 2013-14 season.
Meanwhile, rookie point guard Yago Dos Santos dished a personal best 11 assists, also one shy of Sosa's record of 12, set in the 2013-14 campaign.
