Regular Season Round 24: Mersin - Besiktas 77-87
Date: March 29, 2014
Not a big story in a game when 14th ranked Mersin (6-18) lost to seventh ranked Besiktas (14-10) in Akdeniz 77-87. The game was mostly controlled by Besiktas. Mersin was better in second period 21-14. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. The game was decided in the last minutes when Besiktas won last quarter 26-17. They made 23-of-25 charity shots (92.0 percent) during the game. The best player for the winners was American point guard Doron Perkins (188-83, college: Santa Clara) who scored 9 points, 13 rebounds and 9 assists. Croatian power forward Tomislav Ruzic (207-79, agency: XL Basketball Agency) chipped in 20 points. Besiktas' coach Ahmet Kandemir allowed to play the deep bench players saving starting five for next games. At the other side the best for losing team was naturalized American forward Ali Karadeniz (203-80, college: Arizona) who recorded a double-double by scoring 20 points and 10 rebounds (on 9-of-11 shooting from the field) and FYR Macedonian center Predrag Samardziski (215-86, agency: Beo Basket) added 11 points and 7 rebounds respectively. Four Mersin players scored in double figures. Besiktas have an impressive six-game winning streak. They moved-up to sixth place, which they share with Karsiyaka. Mersin lost seventh consecutive game. They keep the fourteenth position with 18 games lost. Besiktas' next round opponent will be higher ranked Anadolu Efes (#3) in Istanbul and it may be quite challenging game. Mersin will play on the road against Aliaga (#16) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
