Regular Season Round 18: Bursaspor - Merkezefendi 95-73

Date: February 5, 2023
Not a big story in a game when 7th ranked Merkezefendi (8-10) was outplayed on the road by fifth ranked Bursaspor (12-6) 95-73 on Sunday. Bursaspor forced 25 Merkezefendi turnovers. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 26 assists. Greek-American center Zach Auguste (208-1993, college: Notre Dame, agency: Pensack Sports) had a double-double by scoring 27 points and 10 rebounds (on 11-of-14 shooting from the field) to lead the charge for the winners and the former international swingman Onuralp Bitim (196-1999) chipped in 24 points and 5 rebounds during the contest. The best for the losing side was point guard Arca Tuluoglu (180-1997) with a double-double by scoring 13 points and 11 assists and Trinidad and Tobago center Johnny Hamilton (213-1994, college: UT Arlington) scored 12 points, 7 rebounds and 5 blocks. Four Merkezefendi players scored in double figures. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Bursaspor maintains fifth position with 12-6 record. Merkezefendi at the other side dropped to the sixth place with ten games lost. They share the position with Darussafaka and Bahcesehir. Bursaspor will meet higher ranked Efes (#4) in the next round and it may be quite challenging game. Merkezefendi will play against Acibadem and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
