Regular Season Round 17: Merkezefendi - Karsiyaka 83-81

Date: January 26, 2026
Important game to mention about took place in Denizl. Eleventh ranked Merkezefendi (6-10) saved a 2-point victory at home edging 15th ranked Pinar Karsiyaka (4-12) 83-81 on Monday evening. Croatian Roko Badzim (194-1997) nailed 23 points and 5 rebounds for the winning side and Belgian forward Vrenz Bleijenbergh (208-2000) accounted for 12 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists. Four Merkezefendi players scored in double figures. American point guard Stefan Moody (179-1993, college: Ole Miss) came up with 20 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists and the other American import guard Cameron Young (195-1996, college: Quinnipiac, agency: Slash Sports) added 17 points respectively for Karsiyaka in the defeat. Both coaches tested many bench players in such tough game. Merkezefendi moved-up to tenth place. Karsiyaka at the other side keeps the fifteenth position with 12 games lost. Merkezefendi will play against higher ranked Anadolu Efes (#6) in Istanbul in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Karsiyaka will play at home against the league's leader Fenerbahce (#1) and will have a slim chance for a victory.
