Mike James’ decisive step-back hat-trick and Wilbeck’s last-minute miss to send Fenerbahçe into the last four for Monaco’s superb double in Istanbul.
Monaco hit the Ulgar Sports Hall and left Istanbul to score a huge double against Fenerbahçe. In the fourth period of the match, the Monaco team “come back” and Mike James signed a big win for Sasha Obradovic.
The American guard combined with Jordan Lloyd to hit a 3-pointer and beat Goodrich in a 61-57 duel.
With the score tied at 63-62 in favor of the visitors and James in possession — called for a layup from the sideline — the veteran regionals player was fouled with 5 seconds left and the ball rebounded. Turks with 18″.
Wilbekin was responsible for Fener’s last-ditch attack to send Jasikevicius into the final four, but unfortunately his shot went wide, sending the series to a fifth game in Monte Carlo (8/5, 8 p.m.).
