Regular Season Round 10: Mersin - Galatasaray 59-89

Date: December 21, 2011
Very expected game when 6th ranked Mersin (4-6) was smashed at home by second ranked Galatasaray (9-1) 89-59 on Wednesday. The game without a history. Galatasaray led from the first minutes and controlled entire game increasing their lead in each quarter. They dominated down low during the game scoring 56 of its points in the paint compared to Mersin's 34. Galatasaray had a 34-23 advantage in offensive rebounds. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. Worth to mention a great performance of center Tina Charles (193-88, college: Connecticut, agency: LBM Management) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 16 points and 12 rebounds. American center Sylvia Fowles (198-85, college: LSU) contributed with 17 points and 8 rebounds for the winners. Four Galatasaray players scored in double figures. Galatasaray's coach Ceyhun Yildizoglu felt very confident using entire bench which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. American guard Shavonte Zellous (178-86, college: Pittsburgh) replied with 26 points and 6 rebounds and her fellow American import forward Christi Thomas (191-82, college: Georgia) added 11 points and 13 rebounds in the effort for Mersin. Galatasaray have a solid four-game winning streak. They keep a position of league leader, which they share with Fenerbahce. Mersin at the other side dropped to the seventh place with six games lost. Galatasaray will face Botas (#6) in Adana in the next round where they are favorite. Mersin will play on the road against Ceyhan Bld in Adana.
