PAOK mateco managed to bounce back from down 11 (81-70) and take over the lead (83-82), however, ERA Nymburk’s Jerrick Harding made sure his team was the one to celebrate with a game-winner at the buzzer for an 84-83 win in the Basketball Champions League.
Harding made a very tough shot in the final second while falling back off one leg and over a tall defender at that. The 23-year-old American guard was also putting up baskets before that, finishing with 22 points, four rebounds, three assists.
Lukas Palyza followed with 18 on 5-5 from deep while Colbey Ross scored 15. For PAOK, Marvi Jones (17 points, ten rebounds) and Vlado Jankovic (14 points, 11 rebounds) had double-doubles while Malcolm Griffin dished seven assists in addition to his 13 points.
Nymburk has now improved to a 1-1 record in Group E while PAOK might be in trouble after a 0-2 start. Galatasaray and Igokea have one win each and will clash with each other this week.
