Anadolu Efes matched Fenerbahce Beko’s BSL W-L record on Sunday. Ergin Ataman’s club beat Zeljko Obradovic’s side, 67-65. Just three days after Fener’s win in the EuroLeague Regular Season Round 24 contest, the hosts overcame a ten-point fourth-quarter deficit to grab the “W”.

James Anderson sank a pair of three-pointers after the visitors took a 62-52 lead. The 29-year-old American swingman ignited a 14-1 run and added a clutch free throw in the final minute. He made six shots beyond the arc en route for his game-high 23 points.

Vasilie Micic ended up with 14 points after his go-ahead three-point play with 2:48 to go. On the losing side, Kostas Sloukas notched 14 points, six rebounds, five assists and two steals, but missed his shot at the buzzer.

Earlier, Pinar Karsiyaka defeated Galatasaray Doga Sigorta, 78-75. Assem Marei led the way with 21 points and Sek Henry added 20 of his own. Aaron Harrison scored a game-high 24 points for the losing side.
