Bad away game for Anadolu Efes. The Istanbul team couldn’t get the victory against Erokspor (90-79) in a tough loss.
Saben Lee (16) and Ercan Osmani (15) were the top scorers for the Euroleague squad. Jordan Crawford (24 points and 9 assists) shone in the local team. Shane Larkin, Rodrigue Beaubois, Jordan Loyd, Cole Swider, and Vincent Poirier did not play for Efes.
Terrible first half for Anadolu Efes on the road (43-30). Esenler Erokspor took the lead after a great defensive start.
Pablo Laso’s team tried to react in the fourth quarter with a 20-30 run, but it wasn’t enough to get the away victory (90-79). Seventh loss in 16 games (9-7) for Efes in the BSL.
