Galatasaray Istanbul fought back to beat home team CB L’Hospitalet 64-68 at the ADIDAS NEXT GENERATION TOURNAMENT to improve to 1-1 in Group A. Lazgin Ozkanli led Galatasaray with 18 points and eight rebounds while Berkay Kansu collected 12 points, two steals and 13 fouls drawn and Yasin Unluturk added 12 points. Ata Sarakin chipped in two points and 12 rebounds for the winners, who held the home side to just 5-of-33 three-pointers (15%). L’Hospitalet was hoping to win its first game since becoming part of the tournament during the 2007-08 season but came up short to drop to 0-2 despite 11 points from Andreu Nicolau and 10 points, 9 rebounds, three assists and two steals for Maximilian Edwards.

Ozkanli scored the first four points of the game for an 0-4 lead before Javier Balastegui and Albert Ruiz nailed three-pointers in a 16-1 run for a 16-5 lead. Kansu scored three points as Galatasaray trailed 16-10 after 10 minutes. Bugrahan Yorulamez had a basket and a three-ball and Mustafa Ozdemir scored back-to-back baskets in an 0-11 run for Galatasaray start to the second quarter for a 16-21 lead. L’Hospitalet punched right back with Marc Ruf scoring a pair of baskets and Pau Alquezar nailing a three-pointer for a 23-21 advantage. Edwards tallied to make it 27-23 with 3:35 minutes left in the second quarter but neither team could score the rest of the half.

Pau Enfedaque and Edwards scored early in the second half to push the L’Hospitalet lead to 31-25. Kansu and Adnan Koc nailed three-balls and Unluturk converted a three-point play in three straight possessions to give Galatasaray the lead 32-34. And Ozkanli’s two foul shots had the Turkish team up 37-40. The home team got two straight baskets from Nicolau for a 44-40 advantage and the side was up 46-42 going into the final quarter. Ozkanli’s basket and two Unluturk free throws evened the game but L’Hospitalet hit back with four straight points and Daniel Garcia nailed one from long range for a 53-48 advantage. After Koc’s three evened the game again at 53-53, Carlos Malagon made one free throw for a 54-53 lead with four minutes left. L’Hospitalet failed to convert on four straight possessions and Galatasaray jumped ahead 54-60. After Edwards scored to trim the gap to 58-62 with a minute to play, Kansu was fouled and made the first free throw but missed the second foul shot, which Ozkanli rebounded and put back for a 58-65 lead with 41 seconds left. Ruf completed a three-point play to get the home team to within 61-65 with 36 seconds remaining. Ozkanli, Kansu and Ozdemir all split two free throws in the final stretch to ice the victory.
