Montepaschi Siena managed to secure a 4-point victory 93-89. It looked good early as Lottomatica Roma took an 4-point lead at the end of first quarter.

Montepaschi Siena made 18-of-20 charity shots (90.0 percent) during the game. They shot the lights out from three nailing 15 long-distance shots on high 55.6 percentage.

His fellow American import guard Matt Janning (197-88, college: Northeastern, agency: Pro Partner Sports Management) contributed with 16 points and 4 assists for the winners. Montepaschi Siena's coach Marco Crespi allowed to play the deep bench players in such tough game. American guard Josh Mayo (182-87, college: Ill.-Chicago, agency: Stanislav Ryzhov) answered with 22 points and 4 assists (on 7-of-9 shooting from the field) and American-Nigerian forward Trevor Mbakwe (207-89, college: Minnesota) added 18 points and 8 rebounds in the effort for Lottomatica Roma.
