Date: October 19, 2025
There was a minor upset when higher ranked Trabzonspor (2-2) lost to eleventh ranked Merkezefendi (2-2) in Denizl 75-84 on Sunday. The winners were led by American point guard Kenneth Smith (191-1993, college: La Tech) who scored that evening 25 points and 4 assists (on 9-of-11 shooting from the field) and the other American import guard Sam Griffin (192-2001, college: Wyoming) supported him with 27 points (made all of his ten free throws !!!). Even 19 points and 9 rebounds (made all of his seven free throws) by point guard Dae Dae Grant (188-2001, college: Duquesne) did not help to save the game for Trabzonspor. American Marcquise Reed (190-1995, college: Clemson, agency: Octagon Europe) added 9 points and 7 assists for lost side. Both coaches tested many bench players and allowed the starting five to get some rest. Merkezefendi moved-up to fifth place, which they share with 5 other teams including defeated Trabzonspor. Merkezefendi will meet Manisa (#13) on the road in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Trabzonspor will play against the league's leader Anadolu Efes (#1) and hope to secure a win.
