The game was close throughout the 40 minutes, as Gaziantep was ahead by two points after 10 minutes that went to 35-39 at the break after a three on the buzzer by Conner Frankamp. A clean three by Scottie Wilbekin put Fenerbahce ahead, 48-46, but the lead kept changing sides until the game’s very last play.
