Leyton Hammons hit a triple and fed Kerem Konan for a layup, good for a 17-15 Besiktas advantage. Matt Morgan and Conor Morgan each struck from beyond the arc to make London regain a 19-25 margin after 10 minutes.
Three-pointers kept London in charge

Bahcesehir College Istanbul-Besiktas Fibabank Istanbul | Round 2 Highlights | 2024-25 BKT EuroCup
London stopped Besiktas's comeback
Delgado and Derek Needham took over after the break, bringing Besiktas within 47-48. Belgado soon scored around the basket to tie it at 53-53. Luke Nelson hit a jumper, Olaseni added a layup and Soluade a three-pointer in a 0-10 run that made it a double-digit game, 53-63. Mathews and Needham brought Besiktas a bit closer, 59-68, after 30 minutes.
Besiktas rallied, London won
Matt Morgan followed a wild three-point play with a stop-and-pop three-pointer that seemed to break the game open, 61-74, with over 8 minutes left. Yigit Arslan and Delgado stepped up for the hosts, Mitchell followed a three-pointer with a layup-plus-foul and Hammonds also struck from downtown for a 78-82 Besiktas deficit with 53.5 seconds left. Mitchell scored around the basket with 7.5 seconds remaining to make it 80-82, then Jordan Taylor split free throws, setting an 80-83 score, and Hammonds missed from downtown at the buzzer.
