Date: April 23, 2026
Everything went according to plan when seventh ranked Galatasaray (16-12) defeated 9th ranked Merkezefendi (11-17) in Denizl 90-80 on Thursday. Galatasaray made 21-of-27 free shots (77.8 percent) during the game. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 23 assists. The winners were led by the former international guard Ahmet Tuncer (194-1993) who scored that evening 15 points and 9 assists and American John Meeks (197-1999, college: Charleston) supported him with 17 points. Five Galatasaray players scored in double figures. Even 25 points (on 9-of-11 shooting from the field) by Croatian Roko Badzim (194-1997) did not help to save the game for Merkezefendi. Belgian forward Vrenz Bleijenbergh (208-2000) added 14 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists for lost side. Both coaches allowed to play bench players saving starting five for next games. Galatasaray maintains seventh position with 16-12 record, which they share with Erokspor. Merkezefendi lost third consecutive game. They keep the ninth place with 17 games lost. Galatasaray will meet at home Manisa (#14) in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Merkezefendi will play against Buyukcekmece (#16) in Istanbul and hope to secure a win.
