The teams traded tough baskets early with Theodore and Mitchell Watt opening Reyer's tally before Teodosic from long range and Jaiteh from close range made it 6-10. Stone nailed a corner triple for the hosts, but Hackett scored 6 close-range points before the end of the first quarter to help the visitors open a 13-19 advantage after 10 minutes.

Michael Bramos and Austin Daye got Reyer within 17-19 early in the second, but Kyle Weems sparked a Virtus run that also included a one-handed dunk from Jakkar Sampson and a two-handed fastbreak slam from Amar Alibegovic for an 18-27 lead. Theodore snapped a 1-8 run with a wide-open transition triple, but Cordinier took it to the basket for a driving layup and a double-digit lead, 23-33. Theodore drove to the basket twice, but so did Cordinier, making it 29-37 at halftime.

Jaiteh scored twice inside and Weems had a tip-in for the visitors, but Tonut hit from the outside and Jeff Brooks inside for the hosts before a second three-pointer from Tonut made it 37-43. Jaiteh scored twice more inside, but a triple from Theodore and a three-point play from Tonus helped close the gap to 48-49. Teodosic and Bramos traded triples before Teodosic nailed another and Jaiteh's dunk gave Virtus some breathing room. Stone sank Reyer's fifth three-pointer of the third quarter and the visitors led 56-59 going into the final 10 minutes.

Consecutive baskets from Cordinier, Hackett and Sampson made it 57-65 in less than 2 and a half minutes of the fourth quarter. Cordinier's fastbreak dunk pushed the margin to double digits again. Reyer was without a single field goal until Theodore's triple with 5:40 to go. But Sampson had a three-point play to open a 60-73 lead. Brooks knocked down a three for the hosts, but Alibegovic answered with a long-range dagger on the other end, paving the way for a Virtus win.
