The basketball players of Budućnost Volija will meet in the round of 9 of the Eurocup with a score of half (9:XNUMX), after their third straight defeat, this time away to Turk Telekom.

And more than a new failure, and that in a game that had no importance for them, they are worried about the bad edition of Vladimir Jovanović's team, until disaster threatened. Admittedly, it is brave that the line-up that ended the match showed character.

It was minus 22 several times in the last quarter, but Budućnost came close to 21:2 with an incredible series of 75:72. Axel Butej prevented a spectacular turnaround with a basket from a difficult position, at the end of the attack, for 77:72 with 21 seconds left. That was the final result.

The "Blues" started the match in Ankara well, leading 28:21 in the 12th minute, but then they "shut down" and allowed Turk Telekom to close the 18st half with an 2:1 series and practically solve the question of the winner.

The leader of the Turkish Super League dominated until the beginning of the last quarter, gained a record plus 22, and then disappeared from the field.

On the wings of a cheerful Aleksandar Lazić, and Kenan Kamenjaš and Petar Popović, the Podgorica team came close to 75:70 with 68 seconds to go.

That wasn't the end either, because after an offensive jump, Kamenjaš reduced the score to 44,6:75 72 seconds before the end, and ended the series 21:2, i.e. 15:0.

Then, for the umpteenth time this season, Butej showed what kind of shooter he is...

With this victory, Turk Telekom secured the 2nd place in group B and the advantage of the home field, at least in the round of XNUMX and the quarterfinals.

Buducnost, on the other hand, will host Ulm at the start of the knockout phase, which defeated Cluj 91:71 and won 3rd place in group A.
