Despite leading twice by double digits in the third and the fourth quarter, Fenerbahce got the close 95-90 win and Gaziantep stayed in the game until the end.

Jan Vesely with 18 points was the top scorer of the winners, however, Melih Mahmutoglu made the biggest shot of the game, a three that gave to Fenerbahce an 87-78 lead with one minute left. The bad news for Fenerbahce is that James Nunnally who returned to action injured his left ankle at the end of the game.

Sean Armand with 20 points and 6 assists was the leader of a feisty group, which remains last in the BSL standings, having a 3-15 record. Fenerbahce also remains tied at the top with Tofas – which beat on the road Besiktas by one point (60-59) – as both contenders have a 15-3 record.
