Winless Eagles drop another Top 16 game in Italy

Montepaschi Siena 63 – 57 Beşiktaş

Group F’s undefeated Italians took a 22-13 lead after the first quarter and extended it to 37-26 at the break. Surprisingly, there was a completely different Beşiktaş on the floor in the third as they held the home side scoreless for the first 6 minutes to pull ahead, 45-43, before the final stanza. However, the home team battled back in the fourth quarter and managed to squeeze out a narrow win. Jerrells led the Eagles with 16 points.
