Big hustle, big dunk! Magic Moment
The visitors pull away
Wallace scored the first 4 points of the second half and Palmer made it 37-45 - the biggest advantage for either team thus far. Buducnost needed nearly 2 minutes to score and Wright’s basket trimmed the deficit to 45-48. Turk Telekom continued its strong surge with Ulubay hitting 2 triples and Palmer and Ismail Ulusoy both adding three-pointers in a 2-18 run to give the guests a 47-66 cushion. Buducnost came up with a nice finish to the quarter with the final 5 points to trail 52-66 after 30 minutes.
Petar Popovic made it a 7-0 spurt spanning the quarters but Ulusoy drained another triple and Enoch scored 4 points and Turk Telekom led 56-73. Wright tried to get Buducnost close with 6 points to trim it to 62-75 with under 6 minutes to go. Turk Telekom delivered the knockout punch though with the next 7 points and Wallace’s three-pointer made it 62-82 with less than 4 minutes to go. Wallace added 2 more triples and the cushion was 67-91 to give Turk Telekom perhaps some important points for later tiebreakers.
