Gediminas Orelik hit a three coming off a time out to boost the home team, while Mindaugas Lukauskis cut the margin to 11-14 with another shot from downtown. Ozmizrak exploded with 5 points in a row to give Besiktas a 14-20 advantage after 10 minutes. Deividas Gaiulis fueled Rytas with back-to-back jumpers, but Besiktas went on an amazing 16-4 run capped by Leon Radosevic to earn a 23-41 advantage close to halftime. Nicolas Laprovittola scored form long distance for the hosts, but Ozmizrak went into double figures by a three for a 30-49 lead at halftime.

The music changed back from the lockers with Rytas playing with a different intensity. Orelik scored from long distance to climb within 44-55, but Nate Wolters and Cenk Akyol seemed to reject the comeback attempt with back-to-back jumpers to make it 48-63. Then Ksistof Lavrinovic pushed his side to 55-65 at the end of the quarter. It was time for Engin Atsur to fuel Besiktas and stay ahead on 57-74 but the hosts made a furious come back to get within 82-86 with 48 seconds left on a jumper by Laprovittola. A three-point-play of Lukauskis made it 85-88, but a jumper drained by Maciej Lampe sealed the guests’ victory.

Lietuvos Rytas Vilnius

"The game was determined by our start. We were not 100 percent in our intensity, our energy and in some situations – our concentration. We allowed them to score too much in the beginning of the game. They got confidence. Two or three times we came back to cut the margin, but after that immediately made mistakes. At the end of the game we also took some wrong decisions."

DETTMANN, HENRIK

Besiktas Sompo Japan Istanbul

“We knew that the game will be tough because Lietuvos Rytas is a strong team. We played good at the beginning and that was very important for the victory.”
