Jordon Crawford scored a game-high 33 points including the winning free throws to lead Byukcekmece to a big 90 – 89 Turkish League away win over reigning EuroLeague champion Anadolu Efes.

Crawford shot 7-10 3-pointers before making the 2-2 from the stripe with 12 seconds to play and give Buyukcekmece the lead. On the other end, Rodrigue Beaubois missed on a 3-point attempt and James Anderson couldn’t score after grabbing the offensive rebound.

Kris Clyburn added 16 points and nine rebounds for Buyukcekmece. Tibor Pleiss’ 28 points and six rebounds weren’t enough for Efes that was without star guard Vasilije Micic.

Efes lost ground in the battle for first place in the standings since they are now 18 – 6 behind first-seeded Fenerbahce (20-5).
