Reggio Emilia needed a victory against undefeated Bayern Munich to secure that it is Top 16 bound and Amedeo Della Valle made it happen.
The Italian guard scored 9 out of his 24 points in the last five minutes, propelling his team towards a 90 – 82 win that places them in the third place of Group B.
Bayern (Reggie Redding 14 points, 5 rebounds) remained first despite the loss.
In a highly decisive match that took place in Montenegro, Kyle Gibson provided points (17) and dimes (5 assists) as Buducnost defeated Lietkabelis 76 – 62 to check its Top 16 ticket while leaving the Lithuanian squad out of the competition.
Earlier, a double-double of 14 points and 12 rebounds (for 30 PIR) by Richard Hendrix, helped Galatasaray grab an 87 – 68 victory over the disappointing and eliminated prior to that match Hapoel Jerusalem.
Tarence Kinsey had 13 points and 5 rebounds for the Israelis that might enable some changes in their roster quite soon.
