Trabzonspor is fighting its way back to the playoffs race slowly, after taking down Sakarya at home with 96-79 on Sunday evening.
Brady Heslip led the winning side with 24 points.
Earlier in the day, Fenerbahce dominated the clash against Anadolu Efes, while Ergin Ataman denied shaking hands with Zeljko Obradovic after the game.
