Last week, Jhivvan Jackson dropped 34 points to beat Derthona in the Basketball Champions League Round of 16. Tonight, he hit the game-winning shot for Wurzburg.
The Panamese-Puerto Rican guard was crucial in the German’s 79-77 victory with 21 points, helping his team not only come back from down 20 points but also get another win.
Aubrey Dawkins, who didn’t play any Basketball Champions League game before this year’s Round of 16 with the German team, added 18 points and 7 rebounds.
The 2006-born Hannes Steinbach had 9 points and 6 rebounds for his team’s victory too.
Wes Iwundu led the losing side with 16 points. It was a nice evening performance-wise for the 2003-born playmaker Athanasios Bazinas, who shared 11 assists.
There are now two unbeaten and two winless teams in Group I of the Basketball Champions League Round of 16: AEK and Wurzburg. Derthona and Promitheas are winless at 0-2.
