“It was an exciting, up-and-down game. I am sure everyone has enjoyed it. I would like congratulate ratiopharm Ulm for displaying a strong performance out there. Their organization also deserves a lot of praise for finding and working with talented players who can play both in NBA or Euroleague.
 
I'm very happy that we found a way to win this tough match. We didn't play exactly as planned, but we held a high-scoring opponent to 16 points in the final quarter. This shows how much hard work and effort we put in this game.
 
With over 20 million strong, Beşiktaş have one of the largest and most passionate supporters in Europe. Thanks to them, we always feel the wind behind us. Today, we received significant energy from the stands. I hope they keep it up because, at the end of the day, we only exist for them, and we only  play for them.”
