Prometey Slobozhanske recorded its fourth win in the last five games by topping Besiktas Emlakjet Istanbul 89-70. Its two centers, Tai Odiase and Ondrej Balvin, had to do a lot with it.
Odiase scored 6 of his team's first 8 points to as Prometey established nearly game-long leads. When Besiktas went on a 0-12 run to tie the game at 26-26, Odiase found answers with a jump hook and a dunk that soon capped a 10-1 run that put Prometey ahead for good.
Balvin led his team's second unit, coming off the bench to get 9 points late in the first quarter which allowed Prometey to build a double-digit lead, 26-14. Odiase and Balvin ended up combining for 33 points, 19 rebounds and a PIR of 50. Balvin led five Prometey scorers in double digits with 17 points while Odiase was right behind with 16.
"We had a lot of games like this that we were either winning or losing by a few points, but sometimes we had bad moments. And in this game, maybe we had some bad moments but we never gave up. We always fought and got strong in the rebounds in the second half. I think that in general, the team did great on defense and that helped us get good momentum," Balvin said. "We had some problems with turnovers, but not in this game."
Indeed, Balvin had the right data in his mind soon after the game. Besiktas out-rebounded Prometey by 16-19 in the first half. Things were very different after the break, as Prometey easily won the battle of the boards by 24-13, pulling down 5 offensive rebounds and allowing Besiktas to take just 2. In other words, Prometey grabbed 90% of all rebounds under its rim after the break: 18 out of 20.
Prometey finished the game with 18 points and just 11 turnovers, showing great hustle with 9 steals and 4 blocked shots. On the other hand, Besiktas had more turnovers, 15, than assists, 13, and finished the game with 5 steals and no blocked shots. All that allowed Prometey to cruise to a well-deserved, important victory.
