Matt Janning was great and helped Efes to beat Trabzonspor (77-59) and lead the series 2-0! Dusan Ivkovic’ team wants one more win to reach the finals.
After the easy win in Game 1 (85-56), Efes played once again excellent defence and prevailed easily in the second home game in row. The game was close in the first half, but in the third quarter the hosts allowed only 10 points and with partial score 22-10 led by double digits (59-46).
The hero of Efes was Matt Janning who scored 15 points with 4/4 2ps and 2/4 3ps and made the difference in the third quarter. Nenad Krstic (14p, 10 rebs) and Cedi Osman (11p) were also double digits. Sean Marshall (11p) and Kaloyan Ivanov (7 p., 10 rebs) distinguished among the visitors.
The third game will be held in Trabzon on Wednesday 3/6.
