Anadolu Efes hosted Trabzonspor in Round 20 of the Turkish BSL, continuing their streak of strong results.
Pablo Laso’s side recorded a comfortable 99-87 home win, notching their fifth straight victory across all competitions and improving to 12-8 in the domestic championship standings.
Brice Dessert led the way with 17 points, P.J. Dozier added 15, while Sehmus Hazer contributed 12 and Saben Lee 11 for the winners. Marcquise Reed stood out for Trabzonspor with 24 points, and Angel Delgado added 17 points and five rebounds.
However, the main news came after the game, as Anadolu Efes announced a two-year contract extension with big man Kai Jones.
The former NBA player from the Bahamas has made significant strides in his performances over the past few weeks, including 15 points and seven rebounds in a win over Valencia, prompting the Istanbul club to reward him with a new deal.
Jones joined Anadolu Efes last summer after spending four years between the NBA and the G League, representing the Charlotte Hornets, Los Angeles Clippers, and Dallas Mavericks before moving to Europe.
