“Partizan Responds, Bayern Triumphs Over Blaugrana, Fenerbahce Stages Incredible Comeback Against Paris”
A setback against Anadolu Efes, followed by a struggle against Mornar less than 48 hours later, and finally achieving success for Partizan’s basketball squad.
In the 31st round of the Euroleague at the Belgrade Arena, Željko Obradović’s team triumphed over Alba (85:71) in a contest that they decisively shifted in their favor at the start of the final quarter, establishing a double-digit lead.
Brandon Davis topped the home team’s scoring with 22 points, while Karlik Jones contributed 15 points along with nine assists, and Isaac Bonga added 14 points.
Partizan now holds a record of 16 wins and 15 losses.
Bayern, who will face Partizan on Thursday in Munich, amazed everyone by edging out Barcelona on the road (102:101) with a clutch free throw by Vladimir Lučić with 17 seconds left. Meanwhile, Fenerbahçe narrowly defeated Paris at home, finishing 101:100.
The Parisians led for more than 35 minutes and were ahead by 15 in the third quarter, but the hosts proved their prowess as favorites by sinking a buzzer-beater three-pointer from Nigel Hayes-Davies.
Fenerbahce is now just one win behind the leader, Olympiakos, who suffered a loss to Asvel after their match with Red Star Belgrade.
