Terry rocks the rim again! Magic Moment
The London outfit failed to recover from the opening round’s 59-86 home drubbing at the hands of Buducnost VOLI Podgorica, suggesting that they face a tall order to replicate the 2024 accomplishment when the Lions reached the competition’s semifinals.
The visitors had no reply for Besiktas’s high-tempo game as the home team found plenty of open shots and rained down the three-pointers, nailing 13 of 29 from downtown as it also dominated the offensive boards in the first half.
Besiktas racked up 10 offensive rebounds and as many in its own paint in the opening 20 minutes, making its size count, while the Turkish outfit’s smooth movement of the ball also opened up a barrage of open shots from long range.
The Lions looked capable of staying in the hunt when they slashed a somewhat flattering 50-37 halftime deficit to 56-46 early in the third quarter, but that turned out to be their last roar of the evening.
An 18-7 run gave Besiktas a massive 74-53 lead ahead of the final 10 minutes and although Phillip lit up the lop-sided contest with a vicious dunk early in the fourth quarter, there was no way back for the visitors.
The home side’s advantage soon swelled to 87-61 and Besiktas kept firing on all cylinders until the final buzzer, earning a reprieve for the opening round’s shock 85-79 defeat at Lietkabelis Panevezys.
