An amazing fight from Fenerbahce, who with a clutch of Gooduric – Hayes passed Bologna with (86-82) to remain alone at the top of the ranking.
The match of the 11th game of the EuroLeague would have favorites, although both teams were full. However, the fact that Fenerbahce traveled to Bologna without Scotty Wilbekin, Wade Baldwin, Devon Hall gave the match with Virtus a derby character, with the Turks taking the result (86-82) thanks to the clutch Gudurich – Hayes who put in huge shots .
Sarounas Jasikevicius’ team went up to 9-2 (4-2 at home and 5-0 away), which showed great character and came back from -10 in the middle of the fourth period. Big game from Marko Guduric (21 points in 23 minutes), big game from Hayes (19 points, 5/6 threes, 8 rebounds) – Colson (18 points, 8 rebounds in 32 minutes).
Luca Banki’s team fell to 2-9 (1-5 at home and 1-4 away), as they once again lacked a big phase, a sequence in defense and attack to celebrate. With 4/13 shots, Isaiah Cordinier closed the 40th minute, Toko Sengelia and Morgan-Zizic were amazing, from then on, but in the final, Virtus did everything wrong.
Goodrich’s 3-pointer at 30″ made it 80-81, followed by shots from Matt Morgan (82-81) and Jasikevicius deciding to take the ball down the half court. Hayes made a three and found the target (82-84 ), with the hosts having one more chance, moving the ball around properly, but Paiola finding an iron from the angle.
