Sonny Weems scored all 12 of his points in the extra session as CSKA Moscow outlasted Galatasaray Liv Hospital 86-85 in a thriller Friday at Universal Sports Hall in the Russian capital. CSKA won its eighth straight home game and improved to 11-2 in Group F of the Top 16, which ensures Coach Ettore Messina's side at least a share of first place heading into the last game of the stage.
Despite a record-setting night for big man Zoran Erceg, Galatasaray dropped to 6-7, but enters a decisive home game against Partizan next week with a chance to reach the playoffs. Erceg set club records with 35 points and 7 three-pointers made. The point total was also the most in a Turkish Airlines Euroleague game this season.
Sasha Kaun paced the winners with 14 points on 6-of-7 shooting. Milos Teodosic added 13 and Nenad Krstic and Weems finished with 12 apiece. Erceg grabbed 9 rebounds in addition to his 35 points. Malik Hairston scored 13 and Carlos Arroyo tallied 9 points and 8 assists, but left the game in overtime with an apparent injury.
